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.

Average global primary aluminium output rises 1.2% YoY in September: IAI

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

Average global primary aluminium output has risen 1.2 per cent year-over-year in September, driven by enhanced production by Chinese smelters, showed data released by the International Aluminium Institute (IAI) on Thursday. The growth reflected a clear reversal of trend that has prevailed through the current financial year, with China topping the list of aluminium producing countries globally. Output of the white metal in the World ex China has dropped 2 per cent month-on-month, with declines recorded in almost all aluminium producing regions.

The global daily average output of aluminium surged at 164,600 tonnes from 159,800 in August. In China, September output stood at 2.75 million, the highest in the past 15 months.

"The rally in Shanghai aluminium prices so far this year has improved profitability and is encouraging restarts. There are also ongoing additions to capacity," observed Caroline Bain, senior commodities economist at Capital Economics in London.

In 2015, several Chinese smelters shut millions of tonnes of capacity weighed on by mounting losses, which eventually bolstered prices to a 13-month peak in August from an all-time low in January. This year, so far, as much as 1.8 million tonnes of capacity has been restarted, according to industry sources.

"Other than the restart volume, new (Chinese) capacity reached 2.9 million tonnes this year. Based on our record, there will be another 1.3 million tonnes of new capacity entering the market," said Paul Adkins, managing director of Beijing-based consultancy AZ-China.

China’s monthly aluminium output is expected to log a steady growth rate in the short term till the time a supply-side crunch is felt which is likely due to a nascent weakness in the property sector. According to analysts, the rise will lead to benchmark aluminium prices falling to $1,550 a tonne by the end of the year.

Global primary aluminium production totalled at 4.937 million tonnes, up 1.2 per cent from the corresponding period previous year, while North American output fell 11 per cent to 325,000 tonnes, IAI data revealed.
