Renewable Electrified Cement Production: Techno-Economic Assessment Across Four Locations

A techno-economic assessment dataset comparing renewable-powered electrified cement production configurations against carbon capture and storage alternatives. The analysis uses detailed process modeling and a mixed-integer linear programming framework to evaluate fully and partially electrified plants under varying cost scenarios and renewable supply conditions. The dataset spans four geographically diverse locations to capture the effects of renewable resource quality on economic performance.

Use Cases

• Benchmarking decarbonization technologies based on techno-economic modeling results mentioned in the description.
• Analyzing the impact of renewable resource quality on economic performance based on the four-location study.
• Modeling operational flexibility and load-shifting benefits based on the described intermediate calcined-material storage.
• Assessing the competitiveness of electrified alternatives under varying carbon credit and infrastructure scenarios.

Strengths

• Analysis spans four geographically diverse locations to capture renewable resource quality effects.
• Includes detailed process modeling and a mixed-integer linear programming framework.
• Compares fully and partially electrified configurations, with specific electricity demand multipliers provided (4.5–7 times and approximately an order of magnitude).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect modeling assumptions and biases inherent to the specific techno-economic framework used.
