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.

CleanPeak acquires SEI to expand solar and battery footprint in Australia

EDITED BY : STAFF EDITOR 2MINS READ

CleanPeak Energy has taken full ownership of Sustainable Energy Infrastructure, adding a mix of smaller-scale solar and battery projects to its portfolio across multiple Australian states.

SEI mainly focuses on projects under 5 MW, but together they add up. The deal brings in about 71 MWac of solar capacity across 16 sites and another 42 MW of battery storage spread over 11 locations, covering New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.

The move is part of CleanPeak’s plan over the next few years, roughly a three to five year window, where it’s trying to scale up its “in-front-of-the-meter” operations. Basically, power that goes straight into the grid or to customers, not just behind-the-meter setups. The company is also looking to strengthen its retail energy side through this.

What probably matters more here is the mix of solar plus storage. CleanPeak says bringing SEI’s assets in gives it more room to manage energy risk and improve how these systems perform day to day. The spread across different regions also helps smooth things out a bit in terms of supply.

CEO Philip Graham said the acquisition lines up with the company’s longer-term plan to build a more stable and flexible energy system, adding that SEI’s assets give them a stronger presence nationally and more capacity to deliver lower-cost power.

CleanPeak itself has been around since 2017 and has grown fairly quickly in the distributed energy space. Most of its work involves installing systems directly at customer sites, helping businesses cut energy costs and emissions. It’s also involved in larger infrastructure setups in cities, including heating, cooling and EV charging.

The deal was backed by Gresham Partners as financial advisor and Maddocks as legal counsel.

With SEI now part of the business, CleanPeak is positioning itself to handle more demand coming from both commercial users and government, especially as Australia keeps pushing toward lower-carbon energy.
