Facility counts by sector, Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0).
Across the 11 Libya industrial facilities with an estimated CO₂ figure (Climate TRACE), total emissions are about 4.5 Mt CO₂e/yr. The single largest emitter, Libyan Iron and Steel Misrata plant (iron-and-steel), accounts for about 19% of that. The biggest sectoral share comes from cement. Among facilities with a known operator, the top three — Al Ahlia Cement Co, National Oil Corp, Libyan Cement Co — account for roughly 81%. Most of these facilities sit in a arid Köppen climate zone.
Estimated CO₂e (modelled): Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0); climate: Köppen-Geiger (WorldClim). CC BY 4.0.
