In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: other-manufacturing. As manufacturing plant, it requires high process heat (typically 100–600°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Heavy manufacturing facilities run a range of heat-intensive processes (rubber, plastics, pressure vessels); maintaining process heat efficiently is critical to cost control.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 94k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), EXXONMOBIL CHEMICAL CO - BATON ROUGE POLYOLEFINS PLANT 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 €7.1M/yr.

Measured CO₂: 135k t/yr — verified GHGRP (reporting year 2023) (44% above the modelled estimate). Modelled estimate 94k t/yr (Climate TRACE), high-confidence match, cross-checked via the measured-vs-modelled dataset (n=711).

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1301 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.00× 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.
