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 alumina exports exceed 460,000 tonnes in October: Source says

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to the data released by the General Administration of Customs on Friday, November 23, China’s October alumina exports exceeded 460,000 tonnes and reached the highest since at least October 2014. The reason because Chinese producers of the aluminium raw material continued to cash in as much as possible on the global shortage.

The customs data also shows that China so far in 2018 has exported just under 1 million tonnes of alumina.

China’s alumina exports in October alone surpassed the volume shipped across the last three calendar years 2015, 2016, and 2017 in total.

Shortages in the global markets were due to an outage at Norsk Hydro’s Alunorte refinery in Brazil and then a strike at Alcoa’s alumina operations in Western Australia amidst the US sanctions against the UC Rusal.

The growth in international spot alumina prices by more than 30 per cent in Q3 2018 was also a reason for China’s October alumina export growth.

Jackie Wang, an analyst at consultancy CRU in Beijing, was of opinion that delayed exports from September, with the August figure just below 30,000 tonnes coming in well below expectations likely spurred the export volume for October.
