# Do sponge iron and steel plants in Raipur and Durg have CCTS emission intensity targets yet?

Canonical: https://senseible.earth/answers/chhattisgarh-steel-plant-ccts-target

Check the latest notification. The first target rules named plants in a few sectors, and iron and steel is a large sector expected to follow. A plant has a target only once its name, baseline and target appear in a notification. Until then it has none, but its monitoring records will be needed.

## How to check

1. Look for the latest Greenhouse Gases Emission Intensity Target Rules notification and amendments covering iron and steel.
2. Search for your plant name and location.
3. If listed, note the baseline year, product unit and target.

## Prepare anyway

- Monthly coal, dolomite and ore quantities with lab analyses.
- Electricity bought and generated, including waste heat recovery power.
- Production by product: sponge iron, billets, bars.

## The same records serve CBAM

Exporters and their customers need embedded emissions per tonne for CBAM. A plant that keeps these records once can answer both.

## What Senseible does here

Senseible reads coal, coke, gas and electricity invoices and production records into a dated, fingerprinted record per site, so the direct emissions behind each tonne can be traced to the documents. Emissions factors outside India are entered from the official source and labelled.
