Adani Cement and Coolbrook announce a delivery agreement for the world’s first commercial deployment of the revolutionary RotoDynamic Heater (RDH) technology to advance cement decarbonization at an Indian cement plant.
This marks the first industrial-scale deployment of Coolbrook’s RDH technology, advancing Adani Cement’s net-zero goals achievement by 2050 (validated by the SBTi) and Coolbrook’s goal of cutting 2.4 billion tonnes of annual CO₂ across heavy industry sectors globally.
“Entering into the first industrial-scale project in the world with Adani Cement marks a transformative step for industrial electrification in one of the world’s most vital cement markets,” said Joonas Rauramo, CEO of Coolbrook. “Our mission is to make RotoDynamic Technology a new industry standard for decarbonizing hard-to-abate sectors. Together, we’re redefining how cement is produced – cleaner, more efficient, and ready for a net-zero future.”
By providing clean heat to dry and enhance the heating value of alternative fuels, the RDH technology enables a significantly higher substitution of fossil fuels with sustainable alternatives. This first deployment is expected to directly reduce 60,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually with a potential to increase 10x in due course, marking a major step toward decarbonizing cement manufacturing.
Furthermore, the RDH system will be powered entirely by Adani Cement’s large-scale renewable energy portfolio, ensuring that the industrial heat generated is completely emission-free.
