Abstract: Abstract The article presents estimates of carbon dioxide emissions in the ferrous metallurgy for the federal districts of Russia. Calculations were carried out based on the approach developed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) with adaptation for application at the regional level. The main addition to the emission calculation methods used is the initial regionalization of ferrous metal production, taking into account the production method and the charge used. This made it possible to evaluate steel production by federal districts and the technological schemes used, on the basis of which estimates of carbon dioxide emissions were made. Determining the distribution of emissions from the Russian ferrous metallurgy by federal districts made it possible to identify spatial and technological regional factors that determine the volume of emissions, which can form the basis for developing directions for decarbonization of the ferrous metallurgy.
