Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 139k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Cargill Haubourdin Sas carries €11.9M/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.

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1396 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.07× 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.
