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.

In partnership with the alumina and aluminium producer Alcoa Corporation, governments and industrial representatives of Australia, Japan and the US have reached the final investment decision (FID) for a project to establish a gallium production facility at Alcoa's Wagerup alumina refinery in Western Australia.

The plant, to be built and operated by Alcoa, will utilise the company's expertise in alumina refining and advanced mineral processing to produce gallium, a critical mineral used extensively in semiconductors, defence systems and other advanced technologies.

The project is expected to create a dependable alternative source of gallium, supporting the three partner governments' efforts to diversify global critical mineral supply chains amid growing demand and concentrated global production.

William F. Oplinger, President and Chief Executive Officer of Alcoa, said the project demonstrates the collective commitment of governments and industry to strengthening strategic mineral security.

"This final investment decision reflects a shared commitment by governments and industry to strengthen critical mineral supply chains among the partners," Oplinger said.

He added, "The project underscores the strategic importance of Western Australia and the role Alcoa's operations play in delivering critical materials essential to the global economy."

Construction is scheduled to begin after the completion of final site preparations. Alcoa confirmed that its participation in the joint venture, including its responsibilities as construction and operating manager, is not expected to materially affect the company's financial position or operating results.
