Sanggau Regency is an aluminium smelter in Indonesia. Its listed capacity is 21,421 t of alumina/aluminum. Aluminium smelters use large electric currents to refine alumina into molten aluminium above 900°C, and the hot metal must flow through crucibles and casting equipment. By capacity it ranks #3 among 3 aluminium smelters in Indonesia. It emits about 44,764 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.06% of the CO₂e from the 53 facilities in Indonesia that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

In context: how this facility compares

At 21,421 t of alumina/aluminum, Sanggau Regency is below the median aluminium smelter in Indonesia (158,673 t of alumina/aluminum). Subsector: aluminum. As aluminium smelter, it requires high process heat (typically 600–900°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Aluminium smelters use large electric currents to refine alumina into molten aluminium above 900°C, and the hot metal must flow through crucibles and casting equipment.

Carbon cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 45k t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), Sanggau Regency carries no domestic carbon price — and as a CBAM-covered product, its 45k t at the EU CBAM rate (€75/t) is €3.4M/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).
