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.

Future of bauxite and alumina sector looks promising in Jamaica, says Phillip Paulwell

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

Jamaica's Member of Parliament Phillip Paulwell opines in the 2019/20 Sectoral Debate in the House of Representatives that the bauxite and alumina sector in Jamaica remains positive as the industry’s future looks promising based on the increasing demand worldwide. He also expressed satisfaction for the recommencement of operations at Jamaica’s Alpart plant under the management of Chinese firm, Jiuquan Iron and Steel Company (JISCO).

“I'm pleased to see renewed life and energy in the towns surrounding the plant. I'm glad with the growing levels of employment and the many corporate contributions to the community. I'm happy for the sharing of technology and training of Jamaicans at Chinese universities. JISCO is indeed making a difference in the Jamaican economy; we are pleased that JISCO has honoured its commitments and I wish them well. We are looking forward to the expansion of the refinery and the installation of new energy system,” he said.

At the same time, Paulwell pointed out the deteriorating financial position of Clarendon Alumina Production (CAP), which he believes could be because of the increasing cost of production at the Jamalco alumina plant.

He said the plant moved to losses last year from its small operating profit in 2016/17. He questioned whether the challenges being faced by 55 per cent share partner Noble Group was affecting local operations.

“I urge proactivity, for the Government of Jamaica to assume greater responsibility to bring those costs down and to make CAP a profitable venture,” he said.

In regards to the resettlement of bauxite lands, Paulwell said the citizens should be resettled with as much ease as they were displaced.

“It is not beyond us to find a solution to this vexed issue,” he stated. In the end, he promised to establish a system that should work on liberating mined-out bauxite lands for productive purposes, including agricultural production and housing, whenever the Opposition forms Government.
