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.

Industrial designer Guillaume Bloget has designed an aluminium kayak featuring a folded double-wall structure and a cork seat during a research-creation residency organised by France's Rhizome Association.

The project, named Sharp, was inspired by the lakes surrounding the association's workshop. Bloget said the local environment led to the concept of creating an aluminium kayak with a hydrodynamic hull designed to deliver smooth gliding performance on the water.

The kayak's structure is formed through a folding process that creates a double-wall aluminium body, which the designer said makes the vessel unsinkable while maintaining a lightweight construction.

To improve comfort, the kayak incorporates a cork seat that conforms to the user's body while contrasting with the angular geometry of the passenger compartment.

Bloget also highlighted the visual qualities of aluminium, noting that the metal's reflective surface interacts with light and water to enhance the kayak's overall aesthetic.

The project was developed through the Rhizome Association's research-creation residency programme, which brings together designers, artists and scientists to explore innovative concepts inspired by their surroundings.
