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.

The construction of the new facility is estimated to complete by April 2021. It will house advanced robotics, along with proprietary forming and joining technologies to create lightweight structures including those used for electric vehicle (EV) battery systems.

This new site reportedly involves an investment of $75 million, and is projected to employ 279 full time workers at peak production.

“This investment represents DURA’s commitment to support global customers in the transition to electrified, high performance vehicles.” said Kimberly Rodriguez, DURA Chief Executive Officer.

He also said, “We are delighted to extend our well-established European expertise in design and manufacturing of lightweight structural architectures, to the North American market. On behalf of DURA, we are excited to join the Muscle Shoals community and bring advanced technology jobs to the region.”

In 2021, Dura is expected to launch an additional site in the Republic of Macedonia to produce lightweight exterior systems. In 2020, it launched a lightweight structural systems plant in the Czech Republic.

Aluminium structures are prominent in European premium vehicles to reduce weight and improve performance and fuel economy. Lightweight architectures are playing an important role as the automobile market is shifting towards electrified vehicles.

DURA produces lightweight aluminium battery trays with integrated cooling systems. Each battery tray is custom engineered and manufactured in accordance with an automaker’s performance objectives. The company has been producing lightweight aluminium architectures for vehicles since 1990.
