Ashinskiy Metallurgical plant — Russian Federation

Steel Plant in Russian Federation. Approximate location 54.99889, 57.26805.

Steel PlantRussian FederationCO₂ estimate (modelled)

Ashinskiy Metallurgical plant is a steel plant in Russian Federation. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels. It is operated by Ashinskiy Metzavod PJSC. It emits about 58,892 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.02% of the CO₂e from the 186 facilities in Russian Federation that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: iron-and-steel. As steel plant, it requires high process heat (typically 800–1500°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Steel plants burn coal in blast furnaces or use electric arcs to melt scrap; in both cases the molten metal must be kept above 1,500°C and transferred through extensive hot piping and vessels.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 59k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Ashinskiy Metallurgical plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 59k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €4.4M/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).
