Far-Ashian Cement Plant — Iran
Cement Plant in Iran. Approximate location 36.7192, 56.84842.
Cement PlantIranCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Far-Ashian Cement Plant is a cement plant in Iran. Its listed capacity is 1,460,000 t of cement. 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 Jovein Cement PLC. By capacity it ranks #18 among 37 cement plants in Iran. It emits about 461,609 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.37% of the CO₂e from the 126 facilities in Iran that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 13% below the national median for this sector.

In context: how this facility compares
At 1,460,000 t of cement, Far-Ashian Cement Plant is around the median cement plant in Iran (1,460,000 t of cement). 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 462k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Far-Ashian Cement Plant carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 462k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €34.8M/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).
