Unknown country of production (Annex IV): 10.02 t CO2e/t. This value is meant for precursors whose origin is not known, not for the goods themselves.
The cost column deducts the free allocation (CBAM factor × the EU benchmark for the default value's production route), so two countries with the same default value can differ when their routes differ.
