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.

Alumina and LME aluminium price divergence to continue in 2017

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

Global alumina prices have risen steadily since late September in 2016 on the back of raw material restocking by the smelters in China where the commodity prices in the domestic market have also witnessed a steep rise, driven by strong demand, refinery closures (on alleged environmental laws incompliance) and limited transportation availability.

Region-wise alumina prices and LME aluminium have continued to diverge through 2016, leaving some smelter owners reluctant to lock in their raw material costs against the LME aluminium price. The divergence has been such that the alumina market has grown independent of that of aluminium over the course of past one year.

News
Alumina prices globally, including in China, experienced a steep rally in the fourth quarter of 2016 after a wave of smelter restocking in China. However, there seems to be a lull setting in for the negotiations for 2017 alumina contracts. With prices for the key raw material for aluminium smelting in December 2016 up 48 per cent since October, contract negotiations for the New Year are being delayed.

According to reliable industry sources, market participants are expecting greater 2017 contract volumes of alumina will be linked to the benchmark indices, or settled on the basis of spot prices, instead of divulging their raw material requirements to the rigidity provided by LME-linked contracts.
