For cement, why are single or combined decarbonisation measures considered eligible only for amber labelling, rather than green? Would emission intensity be a factor in the assessment? For example, if a facility integrates renewable energy measures but still has an overall emission intensity below the threshold in Table 11, would the project be eligible for green labelling?

Regarding TSC 4.2 Manufacture of Cement, single or combined decarbonisation measures are currently eligible for amber labelling because they represent initial steps towards reducing emissions, but may not yet achieve the significant impact required for green labelling. Emission intensity is indeed a critical factor in the assessment process. If a facility integrates renewable energy measures and achieves an overall emission intensity below the threshold specified in Table 11, it may be considered “green”.
