HeidelbergCement details CO2 reduction incentives for managers

02 March 2021

Germany: HeidelbergCement has detailed how it uses bonuses to ensure country and cement plant managers achieve their CO2 reduction targets. Chief financial officer Lorenz Näger explained to financial analysts following the publication of the group’s fourth quarter results for 2020, that a plant’s annual reduction target is calculated against the group-wide ‘525 by 2025’ target of CO2 emissions of 525kg/t of cementitious material by 2025.
