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.

Brazil federal court upholds state court’s order of reducing production at Hydro Alunorte refinery

EDITED BY : HEENA IQBAL 2MINS READ

A Brazilian federal judge yesterday upheld a lower court ruling that ordered Norsk Hydro to cut production at Alunorte alumina refinery by 50 per cent. Federal Judge Arthur Pinheiro Chaves said that failure to honor the conditions set by the courts would result in a daily fine of 1 million reais ($285,000), according to news published by Reuters.

Hydro Alunorte, located in the region of Barcarena, is the world's largest alumina refinery and employs around 2,000 people and has a nameplate capacity of an annual 6.3 million tonnes. On average, 14 per cent of its production goes to the domestic market and the other 86 per cent is exported. Hydro holds 92.1 per cent of Alunorte ownership.

A regional court issued a ruling on Wednesday, February 28, demanding Hydro to cut production by half at its alumina refinery, over worries that a rainstorm had led to leakages from Alunorte into the nearby river and causing contamination of water and land.

“Both reports confirm our previous statements that there was no overflow from the bauxite residue deposit areas, as well as no indication or evidence of contamination to nearby local communities from Alunorte as a result of the heavy rainfall in February,” President and CEO Svein Richard Brandtzæg said earlier.

“We have initiated several measures to further enhance Alunorte’s operational standards, including water treatment capacity, emergency preparedness plans and maintenance. We will also strengthen community engagement to ensure that we contribute to sustainable development in Barcarena in line with Hydro’s CSR Strategy.”

Last week, Hydro said that 50 per cent production restriction at Alunorte and subsequent reduction of production at Paragominas during March had a negative impact on the results for bauxite & alumina in the first quarter of 2018.
