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’s Ministry of Ecology and Environment (MEE) has alleged the state-run Aluminium Corp of China (Chinalco) for repeatedly violating environmental regulations at a plant in Guangxi.

Chinalco Subsidiary in Guangxi caught for violating environmental regulations and polluting surroundings

A week earlier, a central government environmental inspection team found that affiliates of the Chinalco subsidiary Guangxi Nonferrous Rare Earth Development Co Ltd seriously violated environmental norms, resulting in polluting the surrounding area. The inspection team discovered the subsidiary was running outdated and illegal facilities for producing above and beyond the amount of nonferrous ore allowed by law.

“The inspection found […] obvious problems of legal violations, chaotic environmental management and relatively large environmental risks at the Guangxi rare earth company,” the ministry said in a statement released last Wednesday.

Chinalco spokesman could not be reached for his immediate comment, but according to the report, the company accepted the allegation and promised to resolutely rectify the noted violations.

Guangxi Nonferrous was previously punished for environmental violations in 2018 along with Chinalco's subsidiary in northwestern China.

Beijing initiated a nationwide audit programme four years ago and since then had been expanding to giant state-owned companies. This year’s audits were wide ranging and included China National Building Materials Corp. MEE found latter instead of rectifying the violations tried to cover them up.
