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.

Aldi Australia has expanded its Aldi Solar programme into Western Australia and South Australia, giving more households access to affordable rooftop solar and home battery systems as rising electricity prices continue to drive demand for renewable energy solutions.

The expansion extends Aldi Solar's reach to six Australian states and territories after the retailer first launched the programme in Melbourne in early 2025 before rolling it out across New South Wales, Queensland and the Australian Capital Territory later that year.

Developed in partnership with Tempo Group, the programme combines rooftop solar panels, battery storage, inverter technology and installation into fixed-price packages designed to simplify the switch to solar energy.

Affordable solar and battery packages target rising energy costs

Aldi said its entry-level package includes a 5 kilowatt-hour (kWh) lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, a 7 kilowatt (kW) rooftop solar system and a 6 kW smart hybrid inverter, including installation, priced at AUD 7,499 (USD 5,278.96)

Customers can also choose battery capacities of 10, 15 or 20 kWh, paired with either a 7 kW or 7.9 kW solar system, depending on their household energy requirements.

Households that already have rooftop solar installed can opt for a battery-only package to increase energy storage without replacing their existing solar panels.

Renewable energy made easier for homeowners

According to Simon Padovani-Ginies, Group Director at Aldi Australia, the programme is designed to make renewable energy more accessible by removing some of the complexity associated with purchasing solar systems.

"Rising energy prices remain a key concern for Australian families looking to manage their monthly bills," he said.

"Aldi Solar takes the complexity out of going solar by offering straightforward pricing, trusted installation and exceptional value, giving households greater control over their energy costs,” mentioned.

He also added that the packages could offer attractive payback periods while making it easier for more homeowners to invest in renewable energy.

Solar demand continues to grow across Australia

The expansion reflects growing consumer interest in rooftop solar and home battery storage as households seek greater energy independence and lower electricity costs.

With fixed-price packages, certified installation and flexible battery options, Aldi Solar aims to simplify the adoption of residential renewable energy while expanding access to solar technology across more Australian communities.
