Proposed programs are: A.
Require the implementation of no-regrets activities from Energy Savings Plans B.
Capacity-build Energy Services Companies ESCOs for servicing the cement and other heavy manufacturing industries
2. To displace 30 of the fossil fuel used in the kiln processes with waste materials reducing emissions by 8.2 by 2030
Regional demand for agricultural biomass waste, the missing economic incentive to find alternative uses for municipal solid waste and import levies on e.g. tires or other materials,
which are assumed to be hazardous waste in Indonesia but not in other countries, create a limited supply of alternative fuels.
Proposed programs are: C. Review waste policy – increase landfill levies over time and make it viable to create new resource
streams for municipal, agricultural and industrial waste D. Review hazardous waste register and permit requirements for the cement industry
E. Provide a fair export and import levy for waste products
3. To achieve 15 reduction in the clinker usage or increase in blending by 2030
It is noted that Indonesia has one of the highest average clinkercement content in the world 95 and this is largely due to the failed attempt in the mid-1990s to introduce a range of
blended cements to the market, without proper quality controls, marketing and training. Given that the majority of emission abatement opportunitie come from reducing the amount
of clinker used in cement through blending, not over specifying concrete qualitycharacteristics for respective jobs could be a demand-led way of reducing cement
industry emissions. This would need to be supported through an awareness raising initiative with the construction industry.
Proposed programs are: F. Review and set new cement performance standards - to avoid over specification of cement strength for
use, and therefore reduce overall demand for clinker content

G. Eco-label cement products H. Lead by example – government procures blended cement as appropriate to reduce overall demand for
high clinker content cement I. Review national building codes – require a minimum recycled concrete content for new cement
J. Resource a national communications campaign to encourage the use of blended cements
K. Increase government support for building local institutional capacity in policy development and program delivery for eco-efficiency, energy audits, energy services.
