HBIS GROUP Serbia Iron & Steel plant Belgrade

Steel Plant in Serbia. Approximate location 44.60721, 20.96847.

Steel PlantSerbiaCO₂ estimate (modelled)

HBIS GROUP Serbia Iron & Steel plant Belgrade is a steel plant in Serbia. Its listed capacity is 2,199,000 t of steel. 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 HBIS Group Serbia Iron & Steel Beograd doo. It emits about 2,052,057 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 52% of the CO₂e from the 7 facilities in Serbia that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

At 2,199,000 t of steel, HBIS GROUP Serbia Iron & Steel plant Belgrade is around the median steel plant in Serbia (2,199,000 t of steel). 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.

Equivalencies: US EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies. Emissions: Climate TRACE.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 2.1M t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), HBIS GROUP Serbia Iron & Steel plant Belgrade carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 2.1M t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €155M/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).
