Metals PlantSpainCO₂ estimate (modelled)
ALCOA TRANSFORMACION DE PRODUCTOS, S.L. (ALCOA TRANSFORMACIÓN DE PRODUCTOS, S.L.) is a non-ferrous metals plant in Spain. Non-ferrous metals plants melt, refine and cast metals in furnaces and crucibles above their melting points. It emits about 368,000 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.77% of the CO₂e from the 91 facilities in Spain that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3673161.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions
At its reported 368k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), ALCOA TRANSFORMACION DE PRODUCTOS, S.L. (ALCOA TRANSFORMACIÓN DE PRODUCTOS, S.L.) carries €31.4M/yr of carbon at the full EU ETS price (€85/t CO₂). Free allocation phases out to 2034 (Reg. (EU) 2023/956), so today's bill is lower and rising toward this full-price figure.
Carbon price: EU ETS €85/t · EU ETS €85/t, September 10, 2026, refreshed live via Carbon Hub. CO₂: Climate TRACE. Indicative carbon value, not the cash bill — free allocation applies; not compliance advice.
Local climate
ALCOA TRANSFORMACION DE PRODUCTOS, S.L. (ALCOA TRANSFORMACIÓN DE PRODUCTOS, S.L.) sits in a temperate oceanic climate zone (Köppen Cfb), at 43.2°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in an aggressive, high-corrosion environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C5 — Very high), with marine salt corrosion the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1383 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.06× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment. Open method dataset: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20787408 (CC BY 4.0).
Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
