Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Glass, plastic or aluminium? 74.8% recycling rate gives beverage cans a circularity advantage

A cold beer in a glass bottle, sparkling water in a PET bottle and an energy drink in a sleek aluminium can may occupy the same refrigerator shelf. From a sustainability standpoint, however, they are playing three very different games. The global beverage packaging industry expands while simultaneously being pushed towards lower carbon emissions, higher recycled content and better packaging circularity. Estimates compiled for this analysis place the broader global beverage packaging market at ...

Why does a barrel of oil matter to aluminium producers? A hidden link between petroleum coke, prebaked anode and the metal itself

Oil price shocks are traditionally associated with their impact on transportation, aviation, paints and chemicals, tyres, rubber, and fertiliser industries, while the ripple effects on metallurgy often remain overlooked. The recent Middle East geopolitical crisis has renewed attention on aluminium’s strategic importance as a critical global metal supplier, but what about the impact of the oil price surge linked to the conflict on aluminium’s cost structure? Indeed, the aluminium industry do ...
