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.

ASI certifies Alcoa’s two smelting facilities in Quebec against Performance Standard Certification

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to a recent report, Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) has successfully certified Alcoa’s Aluminerie de Bécancour (ABI) and Aluminerie de Deschambault smelters in Quebec, Canada, against the Performance Standard Certification for responsible production, sourcing and stewardship of aluminium.

The two smelting facilities have a combined annual production capacity of more than 670,000 tonnes of aluminium ingots, billets and slabs.

The ASI Performance Standard defines environmental, social and governance principles and criteria, with the aim to address sustainability issues in the aluminium value chain. It sets out 59 criteria under the three sustainability pillars of Governance, Environment and Social, which address key issues such as biodiversity, Indigenous Peoples rights, and greenhouse gas emissions.

Fiona Solomon, Chief Executive Officer at ASI, said: “ASI congratulates Alcoa on achieving these latest Performance Standard Certifications at the ABI and Deschambault smelters, and the scope expansion to its Chain of Custody Standard Certification, which now comprises three bauxite mines, four alumina refineries and seven aluminium smelters. These Certifications are a validation of Alcoa’s commitment and collective efforts to demonstrate the sustainability practices in place at these operations, as well as to the company’s ongoing and valued support of ASI’s Standards program.”

“We are on a journey to re-define what it means to be the most sustainable upstream aluminum company, and earning additional third-party validation of the sustainability of our operations and products is a critical part of that process,” said Rosa García Pineiro, Vice President of Sustainability for Alcoa. “Today, we are able to deliver ASI-certified aluminum to customers anywhere in the world, which reflects our commitment to leading the industry forward and delivering sustainable financial, environmental, and societal value – thank you to the Alcoans at Deschambault and ABI for their hard work in earning these certifications.”
