The plant has a waste heat recovery system (WHRS) that transforms waste heat obtained during the production process into energy.

Neeraj Akhoury, MD and CEO, Ambuja Cements Ltd, told the media that the company’s effort shall always be to become a strong partner and ‘Builders of Progress’ for India.
