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.

China alumina supply not to be affected by natural gas shortage; prices to dip further

EDITED BY : BEETHIKA BISWAS 2MINS READ

Market participants have expected alumina prices to rebound following some production cuts due to shortage of natural gas. However, analysts from SMM believe natural gas rationing will have little influence on alumina output next week so the price would slope downward further.

Lower inventories have supported alumina prices in the short term; however, SMM believes alumina price is unlikely to rebound further. As updated by Shanghai Metals Market, average spot alumina price in China stands unchanged on December 25 after rising slightly up to RMB 2889 per tonne on December 22. Domestic spot alumina prices have also stayed unchanged from RMB 2860/t on December 22.

According to an SMM update, four alumina plants, including that of China Power Investment Corp in Shanxi province, which use natural gas as the major gas source were affected by the shortage of natural gas and a total of 2.29 million tpy of capacity were impacted.

While alumina output has been compromised, production of aluminium hydroxide has been unaffected. Most other alumina plants in Shanxi and Henan provinces have other substitute fuel sources including coal gas to replace natural gas. That is the reason the natural gas shortage is not expected to cause a large production cut.

Other raw materials like bauxite (6.0≤Al/Si＜7.0)in Shanxi province has dropped from RMB 407.5/t on December 18 to RMB 380/t on December 25. Bauxite prices have also dropped in other provinces driven by slow demand from domestic alumina refineries.

Prebaked anode prices remain unchanged today.
