Chemical PlantCanadaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Canada is a chemical plant in Canada. Its listed capacity is 440,676 t of chemical. Chemical plants produce a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals, many requiring precise temperature control and sustained heat input for reactions and separations. By capacity it ranks #8 among 9 chemical plants in Canada. It emits about 145,755 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.21% of the CO₂e from the 127 facilities in Canada that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 77% below the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares
At 440,676 t of chemical, Canada is around the median chemical plant in Canada (540,000 t of chemical). Subsector: chemicals. As chemical plant, it requires high process heat (typically 100–500°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Chemical plants produce a wide range of industrial and specialty chemicals, many requiring precise temperature control and sustained heat input for reactions and separations.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions
At its reported 146k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Canada carries no domestic carbon price, and its products are not CBAM-covered goods, so there is no border-carbon liability. At the EU ETS reference price (€75/t) the emissions carry an indicative carbon value of €11.0M/yr.
