Qassim Cement

Qassim Cement is a Saudi Arabian cement producer operating in a sector that is globally recognized as one of the most carbon-intensive industrial processes. The company has not published a climate transition plan, science-based emissions reduction targets, or a net-zero commitment. There is no public evidence of investments in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technology or a shift to alternative fuels and raw materials, which are critical pathways for decarbonization in the cement industry.

The absence of a disclosed climate strategy, while the company continues core clinker and cement production, constitutes a failure to establish a credible pathway to align with the Paris Agreement. For a heavy industrial emitter, the lack of public targets and transition planning represents an active obstruction to climate policy goals by maintaining business-as-usual high emissions without a accountable decarbonization roadmap.
