Plant Director, Dangote Cement Plant (DCP) Obajana J.V Gungune, stated that, the company has put in place state-of-the-art facilities to mitigate climate change concerns, saying, ‘we need the environment more than it needs us. Hence the need to sustain the environment.’

Head, Sustainability, Dangote Cement, Dr. Igazeuma Okoroba noted that that the company has fully engrained environmental sustainability and Climate Change concerns in all its operations.

Also, the head of Sustainability, Dangote Cement Obajana Plant, Dr. Eseosa Ighile added that several innovative strategies have been introduced to cut emission of Green House Gas (GHG).

Ighile said, in line with the company’s commitment to Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) 12, alternative fuels (AF) were adopted to reduce dependency on fossil fuels.

According to her, the AF project aims to achieve a thermal substitution rate of 25 per cent in all plants by 2025. We are working towards installing AF feeding systems in all our operation lines by 2024.

To her, “the resources utilised for fuels currently at the DCP Obajana include tyre chips, waste oils, and agricultural waste such as palm kernel shells and rice husks. We are also undergoing technical studies on the use of refuse-derived fuels (RDF) as a fuel source. Between January and July 2023, we have consumed over 34,800 metric tonnes of alternative fuel materials for our operations.”

She said, so far, the company’s climate action activities include: monitoring of water, waste, and GHG emissions, creation of a decarbonisation working group, and following the guidelines of both local and international organizations.

Head, Technical Training, Dangote Academy, Adedeji Adewale said, the Dangote Cement uses electrostatic protector to trap dust and recycle into the system, adding that the Dangote Academy plants thousands of trees every year.

He said, only recently the Dangote Academy planted economic trees which include Mangoes, Soursup, Dates and orange trees among others, explaining that tree planting has the potency to protect the climate, regenerate the environment and improve the health condition of inhabitants.
