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.

Going ahead, China Hingqiao Group aims to deploy 4 million tonnes of aluminium smelting capacity by the end of 2025 in Yunan to leverage the availability of renewable energy.

According to Ron Knapp, special adviser to the company, this capacity shift to Yunnan will enable China Hongqiao Group to curb carbon emissions by 30 per cent by 2023-end. Knapp told Reuters in an interview on the sidelines of Fastmarkets aluminium conference in Barcelona, "That's the first step to get us out of coal. We are committed to hit peak carbon by 2025."

China Hongqiao Group aims to shift 2 million tonnes of capacity to Yunnan from northern Shandong province by the end of 2023 and to move 4 million tonnes by the end of 2025. In 2022, the company produced 6 million tonnes of aluminium.

Knapp updated that the sixth potline of China Hongqiao Group’s new operations in Yunnan is almost finished. He also said hydropower availability is back to normal in Yunnan after recent disruptions due to lower-than-usual rainfall this year.
