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.

According to the data from International Aluminium Institute, Australia produced 20.7 million tons of alumina in 2014 and 20.3 million tons in the year 2015. For the year 2016, Australia produced 15.6 million tons of alumina till date.

News
Most of the alumina produced in Australia is exported around the world. In 2014, Australia exported 20 million tons of alumina globally. The amount dropped slightly to 19.6 million tons in 2015. For 2014 and 2015, the total value of alumina export was USD 6.5 billion and USD 5.7 billion respectively. For the year 2016, Australia is estimated to export 13.8 million tons of alumina. Alumina is estimated to deliver USD $3.4 billion revenue to the exporters.

News
The trend shows that Australia alumina industry is purely export driven. About 95% of the total alumina produced in Australia gets exported to the smelters belonging to the owners of the alumina refineries and a number of other countries.

The top aluminium importers from Australia are South Africa and India. South Africa Imported 1.3 million tons of alumina in 2014 and it dropped to 773 thousand tons in 2015. India is a consistent importer of alumina from Australia importing 730 and 710 thousand tons in 2014 and 2015 respectively.
