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 price touches two-year high at US$351/t in 2016

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

Alumina prices, buoyed by the China factor, climbed significantly to touch US$351 per tonne in 2016- the highest in the last two years. The price escalation which started in January 2016, after a few months' initial volatility, picked up momentum from August onward. Since then, the commodity price has been rising exponentially.

China is viewed as the prime factor responsible for this buoyancy though no fundamental alumina shortfall has been reported in the country unlike in late-2014. In fact, the uptick in price caused Chinese alumina output to surge in October and November such that alumina supply in the domestic market was in surplus by almost 150kt in November.

News
Currently, a regional tightness is being observed in China with transport constraints obstructing delivery of alumina from Shanxi refineries in particular. Plus, demand for alumina has been on the higher side as wary smelters are rushing to stock up the raw material ahead of winter when transport issues might worsen. This tightness in alumina supply has allowed the refiners to pass on the increasing cost from higher coal prices.

Analysts expect smelter destocking in China this January and February will allow alumina price rise to easy. According to the commodities forecast, the alumina price will moderate to an average of US$310per tonne in first quarter of FY2017.
