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 primary aluminium output hit six-year highs at 19.64 million tonnes in 1H2021: NBS

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), China’s primary aluminium output hit multi-year highs at 19.64 million tonnes in the first half of 2021. That was up by 10.1 per cent from a year ago, as smelters were encouraged by aluminium prices well above break-even levels.

According to NBS records, China’s primary aluminium production increased the highest in H1 2021 since at least 2015.

China’s primary aluminium output hit six-year highs at 19.64 million tonnes in 1H2021

However, the production volume in June fell for a second straight month due to power limitation in the smelting hub of Yunnan, showed official data on Thursday, July 15. Smelters in Yunnan were ordered to reduce energy consumption in late May after severe drought hampered electricity generation.

The curbs remained in place for much of June, and analysts say it could take smelters in Yunnan until August to start ramping up output again.

“The lack of water in Yunnan has hit June’s number,” said Paul Adkins, managing director of the Zibo-based aluminium consultancy AZ China said. “But AZ China does not expect the water shortage to affect Q3 production numbers, as those pots are now back to full speed, or on their way back.”

For June, China churned out 3.29 million tonnes of primary aluminium, 0.90 per cent down from 3.32 million tonnes in May but up 9.3 per cent year-on-year.
