Cementos Portland Valderrivas Morata de Tajuña Cement Plant
Cement Plant in Spain. Approximate location 40.24545, -3.47416.
Cement PlantSpainCO₂e estimate (modelled)
Cementos Portland Valderrivas Morata de Tajuña Cement Plant is a cement plant in Spain. Its listed capacity is 2,900,000 t of cement. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length. Climate TRACE records an estimated 840,828 tonnes CO₂e for 2024, using 100-year global warming potentials. The source assigns medium confidence to this estimate. It is not a site measurement. The owner listed in the source dataset is Cementos Portland Valderrivas SA. By listed capacity, it ranks #1 among 28 cement plants reported for Spain in the Climate TRACE 2024 source data.

In context: how this facility compares
The median listed capacity of these 28 source records is 1,380,000 t of cement. Subsector: cement. The engineering reference used here for cement plant is 800–1400°C. This is not a measured operating temperature or confirmation of the equipment used at this facility. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length.
Listed capacity and capacity-normalised annual CO₂e comparisons use Climate TRACE industrial facilities data. These are not emissions per unit of actual production; sector role is based on engineering reference. Capacity comparison covers the 28 cement records returned by Climate TRACE API v7 for 2024.
Listed capacity comparison: Spain source records, 2024
Source: Climate TRACE API v7, reporting year 2024. Comparison population: all 28 cement plants returned for Spain by the explicit 2024 Climate TRACE API v7 query, using the same listed capacity unit. It is a source-data comparison, not a census of every operating cement plant. Añorga Cement Plant is present in the older IndustryAtlas snapshot but absent from this source response; their absence does not establish closure or zero capacity.
