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 domestic aluminium production in five months record a Y-o-Y growth of 3% to 16.742 MT

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

Aluminium production in China stood at 3.472 million tonnes in May 2023 (31 calendar days), reflecting year-on-year growth of 1.08 per cent, found the Shanghai Metals Market survey. China’s total output from January to May totalled 16.742 million tonnes, a year-on-year increase of 3.36 per cent. The daily production also rose by 404 tonnes from the previous month to around 112,000 tonnes.

SMM survey indicated the growth rate of aluminium production capacity was weak in May due to a few recommencements of smelter operation in Guizhou. However, with new capacity coming online in the Northwest and Southwest regions, the share of molten aluminium output at domestic smelters registered a record high of 75.5 per cent.

In May 2023, operations of aluminium smelters remained unchanged, except for that in Guizhou where the pace of production slowed down, with the resumption of production capacity at about 180,000 tonnes. However, enterprises in Zunyi and Liupanshui fully resumed production. Overall, the aluminium operating rate in China was recorded at 90.4 per cent during May 2023.

Currently, 200,000 tonnes of pending production capacity are to be resumed in Guizhou and Sichuan, while in Yunnan, a possible restart will be monitored in late June on increased rainfalls. SMM estimates the capacity of nearly 2 million tonnes in Yunnan will fail to resume production in the short term. But the overall operating aluminium production capacity is likely to increase to around 41.5 million tonnes by the end of June, with the output in 30 days to be about 3.37 million tonnes, learned SMM.

The demand for downstream aluminium had a mixed performance in May, with aluminium plate/sheet, strip, foil and extrusion operating rate declining Y-o-Y. However, more new production capacity of aluminium billet came into operation, and the proportion of molten aluminium output continued to be high.

AL Circle’s report on “Global Aluminium Industry Outlook 2023” indicated that China’s domestic demand for aluminium would experience mid-term hiccups on slowing economic growth but would moderately increase in the long term.
