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.

Coventry University has partnered with aluminium foundry Alucast to investigate how recycled aluminium can be processed into high-grade materials suitable for use in critical industries.

The initiative is part of the Clean Futures Programme and aims to help reduce the UK's reliance on imported primary-grade aluminium alloys, which are widely used across sectors including automotive and defence.

According to the university, the UK currently imports up to 1.25 million tonnes of primary-grade aluminium each year because domestic production is insufficient to meet demand.

As part of the project, researchers from Coventry University's Institute for Advanced Manufacturing and Engineering (AME) are working with West Midlands-based Alucast to identify end-of-life aluminium sources that can be processed into high-grade material.

The university noted that much recycled aluminium is unsuitable for certain applications because contamination prevents it from meeting the purity standards required by critical industries.

By studying the lifecycle of aluminium and its post-consumer processing routes, the research team has identified opportunities to recover and reprocess end-of-life aluminium into material that meets the required specifications.

According to Coventry University, the project will help Alucast reduce carbon emissions, lower production costs and make more efficient use of resources while supporting greater use of recycled aluminium in high-value manufacturing.
