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.

Aluminium Association unveils updated environmental product declarations for significant types of aluminium

EDITED BY : RUPANKAR MAJUMDER 2MINS READ

On 20th October 2022, the Aluminum Association, the aluminium industry's leading voice in the United States of America, released the updated environmental product declarations (EPDs) that show reductions in the environmental impact of aluminium product types including primary aluminium ingot, recycled aluminium ingot, aluminium extrusion products and aluminium sheet products.

An EPD is a comprehensive, internationally harmonized report describing a product's potential environmental impact through its life cycle. Companies using EPDs in the building and construction industry make informed decisions about what products to use.

Charles Johnson, the President & CEO of the Aluminum Association, said, “Aluminum produced in North America is more sustainable than ever. The domestic industry has cut the carbon footprint of aluminium production by half over the past 30 years. These new EPDs help us tell this story to customers and other stakeholders.”

Since the EPDs were first released in 2014, sustainability advancements have resulted in better environmental performance across all aluminium product types, including increased use of renewable energy for primary aluminium smelting and improved efficiency in downstream manufacturing processes.

Aluminium supports innovative designs that optimize energy efficiency and support renewable energy use when used in buildings. Aluminium end users in the building and construction industry can make informed decisions about the metal based on these declarations. Specifically, EPDs help earns LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design)® credit points for green building certification under LEED® V4.

According to the EPD reports, average U.S. and Canadian production performance is based on industrywide survey data. EPD reports were verified by UL Solutions – the leading firm in verifying North American EPDs – and developed in accordance with ISO 14025:2006 reporting standards.
