Achinsk Cement Plant — Russian Federation
Cement Plant in Russian Federation. Approximate location 56.22814, 90.40994.
Cement PlantRussian FederationCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Achinsk Cement Plant is a cement plant in Russian Federation. Its listed capacity is 900,000 t of cement. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length. It is operated by CEMROS JSC. By capacity it ranks #19 among 27 cement plants in Russian Federation. It emits about 686,146 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.29% of the CO₂e from the 186 facilities in Russian Federation that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 111% above the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares
At 900,000 t of cement, Achinsk Cement Plant is below the median cement plant in Russian Federation (1,700,000 t of cement). Subsector: cement. As cement plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1400°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Cement plants heat limestone to 1,400°C in rotary kilns — one of the hottest industrial processes — and must control temperature precisely across the entire kiln length.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions
At its reported 686k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Achinsk Cement Plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 686k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €51.7M/yr of exposure on EU-bound exports. CBAM share rises from 2.5% (2026) to 100% by 2034. No domestic carbon price — but cement, steel, aluminium, fertilizer and hydrogen exported to the EU face CBAM at €75/t (rising to 100% by 2034).
