Specifically, cement producers would optimally reduce their emissions by 78% at a carbon price of €100 per ton of CO2, while €155 per ton would provide incentives sufficient for near-full decarbonization. Our findings are generally more favorable than those reported in earlier studies regarding the cost of decarbonizing cement production.

When these external damages for concrete production for each country are normalized to cement production, results indicate an unaccounted for US$20–110 cost per metric ton of cement used (Fig. 2).
