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 aluminium inventory marks fifth consecutive week of decline: A00 ingot price rises

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

China’s primary aluminium inventory has been witnessing a continual decline on limited deliveries to warehouses since the beginning of the month, and today, May 31, 2018, did not display any exceptions. According to the Shanghai Metal Market, including SHFE warrants, the inventory saw a plunge from 2.05 million tonnes to 2.03 million tonnes. Deliveries to warehouses at major markets continued to be limited, SMM learned.

This drop in aluminium inventory indicates that it dipped 45,000 tonnes from Thursday, May 24, and fell 20,000 tonnes from Monday, May 28. The week-on-week decline today was relatively slower than the decline of 60,000 tonnes last Thursday, and marked a fifth consecutive week of decline.

The table below shows the movements of inventories across the major Chinese cities.

The average A00 aluminium ingot price, on the other hand, according to SMM, saw a marginal surge on 31^st of May, from RMB 14590 per tonne to RMB 14610 per tonne, due to a tight supply in the market. The prices are expected to range within RMB 14,590 per tonne to RMB 14,630 per tonne, with spot discounts to settle at RMB 70 to 30 per tonne.

But some of the major markets in China more or less witnessed a plunge in prices or remained unaltered. In east and north, the prices dropped from RMB 14585 to RMB 14560 per tonne and from RMB 14610 to RMB 14600 per tonne respectively, and in south, the price remained unchanged at RMB 14635 per tonne.

The significant drop in spot aluminium price in east China could be because of the lowered transactions in Shanghai at RMB 14570-14660 per tonne with discounts of RMB 60-50 per tonne against the SHFE 1806 contract, lesser than RMB 14640-14650 per tonne on the previous day. Transactions in Wuxi and Hangzhou also dipped on 30^th of May and closed at RMB 14,570-14,600 per tonne and RMB 14,600-14,630 per tonne respectively. Although sellers were keen to offload cargoes but were reluctant to lower their offers. Downstream consumers purchased only on demand. SMM observed that sellers and buyers were in a stalemate position on spot aluminium prices on May 30, 2018.
