Global Green Cement Market to Accelerate at a Steady CAGR of Around 8.19% During 2025-30

The Global Green Cement Market size was valued at around USD 39.19 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 62.85 billion by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 8.19% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30., cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. Countries like the UK, the US, Germany, and Australia, among others, are actively implementing measures to reduce the carbon footprint of their construction sectors, a significant source of global carbon emissions. In 2021 alone, the construction sector emitted around 10 GT of carbon dioxide (CO2), as reported in the 2022 Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction. In line with the Paris Agreement's goals, countries worldwide are striving to decrease carbon emissions from the construction industry. Consequently, governments are enacting stringent regulations to curb carbon emissions from the sector, driving the demand for low-carbon cement and contributing to the growth of the green cement market in recent years.

Furthermore, the ongoing process of urbanization is transforming various regions, accompanied by a simultaneous surge in infrastructure development investments in developing economies to accommodate growing populations and economic activities. For instance, India is projected to spend about USD 17.19 billion on infrastructure in the seven fiscal years through 2030, which is more than twice that spent in the previous seven fiscal years. These substantial investments are poised to elevate infrastructure development in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe. This surge underscores the increasing need for green cement in upcoming infrastructure projects.

Governments, including the UK, India, Germany, etc., are acknowledging the significance of sustainable infrastructure. They are rolling out initiatives that promote or even require the utilization of environmentally friendly construction materials. Consequently, there would be an increased upswing in demand for green buildings during the forecasted period, further states the research report, “Global Green Cement Market Analysis, 2025.”
