Frequently Asked Questions
What is Turkey's CBAM exposure for steel?
Turkey is the EU's largest non-EU steel supplier, exporting 3–5 million tonnes per year. At the default of 2.18 tCO2/t and EUR 65.42/tCO2, the CBAM certificate cost is EUR 142.62/t. Turkish EAF producers with actual emissions of 0.50–0.70 tCO2/t save EUR 96–110/t — EUR 288–550 million per year on 3–5 million tonnes.
Does Turkey have a carbon price eligible for CBAM deduction?
Turkey does not have a national carbon tax or ETS eligible for CBAM deduction under Article 9 of Regulation 2023/956. Turkish manufacturers pay the full CBAM certificate cost with no deduction.
What is Turkey's grid emission factor?
Turkey's national grid emission factor is approximately 0.45 tCO2/MWh — lower than South Africa or India due to a more diversified energy mix including hydro, natural gas, and growing renewables.
Which Turkish steel companies face the highest CBAM exposure?
Erdemir (ArcelorMittal), Kardemir, İsdemir, Tosyalı, and Çolakoğlu are Turkey's major EU steel exporters. All face significant CBAM exposure from 2026.
