As the cornerstone of modern construction, cement deals with concerns about energy consumption and pollution. This study compares the international approaches of EcoCem and Larestan Cement Manufacturing Plant within the “LEED” framework. Among the rising environmental worries, this study has been conducted to evaluate energy efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions in cement manufacturing plants. In particular, this study compares EcoCem International Company and Larestan Cement Plant to identify innovative techniques and improvement potential within the LEED Framework. The main question asks which strategy can effectively increase sustainability in cement production. Comparative research facilitates a comprehensive analysis of energy use, emission, operational methods, reduction of wastes, economic aspects, stakeholders’ perceptions, and environmental impacts. Quantitative data, including energy bills and greenhouse gas emission reports, would complement the qualitative insight obtained from interviews with the factory’s personnel and society members. Statistical analysis and thematic investigation are used to encode the findings. This study evaluates two cement factories based on distinctive techniques using a comparative analysis. The multifaceted approach of the International EcoCem Company for energy efficiency and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is compared with the methods used by the Larestan Cement Plant. Quantitative measurements evaluate the differences, successes, and challenges occurring in energy profiles and their emissions, and finally provide practical advice. International Ecocem Company appears as a pioneer in energy efficiency and provides novel techniques in line with LEED principles. These techniques include high-tech production methods, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) techniques, the use of renewable energies, alternative fuels, waste heat recovery, and comprehensive monitoring. On the contrary, Larestan Cement Plant’s attempts seem less than the comprehensive techniques, requiring fundamental revision to be matched with sustainability goals.
