The dataset contains 16 records after repeated placeholder values are removed. The estimated total is 81,601,450 tonnes of carbon dioxide for 2023.
These are Climate TRACE modelled estimates for 2023. They are not verified declarations, current emissions, tax liabilities or CBAM liabilities.
Some records may represent facility clusters. Confirm the facility, operator, installation boundary, sector and reporting period before use.
