Emission factor summary
Emission intensity of steel production within the reporting country. Published by Climate TRACE and derived either by utilizing satellite-derived mapping data which can capture variation in activity for certain types of steel facilities or by applying a basic disaggregation method for plants where hotspots were not captured on satellite imagery. NOTE: this value is provided in CO2 only and does not include the impact of other GHGs.
