Industrial facilities in Afghanistan — directory, sectors & CO₂

Industry mix (Afghanistan)

Facility counts by sector, Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0).

The state of Afghanistan's industrial emissions

Across the 4 Afghanistan industrial facilities with an estimated CO₂ figure (Climate TRACE), total emissions are about 0.65 Mt CO₂e/yr. The single largest emitter, Jabal Saraj Cement Plant (cement), accounts for about 39% of that. The biggest sectoral share comes from cement. Among facilities with a known operator, the top three — Jabal Saraj Cement, Affordable Solar Silver City LLC, Ghazanfar Group LLC — account for roughly 100%. Most of these facilities sit in a continental Köppen climate zone.
