The state of Congo's industrial emissions

Across the 4 Congo industrial facilities with an estimated CO₂ figure (Climate TRACE), total emissions are about 0.61 Mt CO₂e/yr. The single largest emitter, Mindouli Cement Plant (cement), accounts for about 46% of that. The biggest sectoral share comes from cement. Among facilities with a known operator, the top three — Diamond Cement Congo SA, Société Nouvelle de Ciment du Congo, FORSPAK International Congo SARL — account for roughly 86%. Most of these facilities sit in a tropical Köppen climate zone.
