In the case of cement, the MPA warns that the lack of competitiveness bears worrying similarities to the crisis that has affected the British steel sector. The MPA warns that the British cement industry faces similar issues to those of the steel sector, such as rising energy costs, the threat of carbon leakage, and deindustrialization. Dr. Diana Casey, MPA's Executive Director of Energy and Climate Change, noted that the government's steel plan reflects concerns shared by the cement sector, particularly regarding energy cost competitiveness. Although the UK has capped energy prices, its dependence on external sources has exposed the industry to significant increases, while demand for clean energy continues to rise with the transition to electrification and carbon capture."}
