Module 3 of 9 · A2 · Production routes and system boundaries
Overview
CBAM does not ask for your whole plant's footprint, only for emissions inside a defined system boundary. Aluminium has three: primary smelting, secondary melting, and forming products. This module shows what is in and out of each, so you monitor exactly the right sources.
You will learn
- The three aluminium production routes.
- Which emission sources sit inside each boundary.
- Which processes and materials are outside.
- How the route also decides your CBAM benchmark.
