B2Z AdvisoryBusiness to Zero Carbon

SECTOR GUIDE

CBAM Compliance in the Fertilizer Sector

The production of nitrogen-based fertilizers and their precursors (such as ammonia and nitric acid) is covered by CBAM due to both energy consumption and process-related greenhouse gas emissions, particularly N2O. Manufacturers exporting fertilizers to the EU must calculate and report these emissions per product.

Covered Product Groups

  • Ammonia
  • Nitric acid
  • Mixed fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium
  • Potassium nitrate

Sector-Specific Challenges

  • Accurately measuring and reporting N2O emissions from nitric acid production
  • Including natural-gas-related emissions from ammonia production in the calculation
  • Disaggregating product-level emissions for multi-component mixed fertilizers
