Aravansky Cement Plant — Kyrgyzstan

Cement Plant in Kyrgyzstan. Approximate location 40.51564, 72.59663.

Cement PlantKyrgyzstanCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Aravansky Cement Plant is a cement plant in Kyrgyzstan. 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 Southern Construction Materials Plant. It emits about 282,578 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 22% of the CO₂e from the 5 facilities in Kyrgyzstan that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

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 283k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Aravansky Cement Plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 283k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €21.3M/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).
