Canada, Heidelberg to sign deal on work carbon-capture cement project -sources
OTTAWA, April 4 (Reuters) - The Canadian government will on Wednesday sign a memorandum of understanding with Germany's Heidelberg Materials to help develop a facility to capture carbon emissions from cement production, two sources with knowledge of the plan said.
Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne will announce the partnership in Edmonton, Alberta, where Heidelberg and pipeline company Enbridge Inc are developing a plan to capture and sequester the Lehigh cement plant's carbon emissions.
Heidelberg could not be immediately reached for comment. The minister's office declined to comment. Sources declined to be identified as the information was not public.
