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.

GFG Alliance to revise the design of alloy wheel plant to boost output capacity

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

GFG Alliance is reportedly considering alternative plans to change the design of £120 million alloy wheel plant at the site to enable it to double its output.

The company, headed by international entrepreneur Sanjeev Gupta, said this plan came after a very encouraging response from Britain’s car makers to the prospect of being able to source alloy wheels in Scotland rather than having to import the entire supply.

The original design, which was approved by Highland Council early this year, was for a plant that would use half the aluminium produced in Fort William and the rest would be sold to other factories around the United Kingdom.

GFG explained it had a long-term plan to optimise the value of the smelter and its associated hydro power schemes by turning all the metal produced there into alloy wheels.

GFG’s Lochaber operations director Brian King said: “At present, almost all of the eight million alloy wheels used in British-made cars come from abroad. That’s going to change, and Scotland will be the flagbearer for that change.”

He continued: “We’re looking at ways of future-proofing the plant to ensure its long-term sustainability. That would save time and money down the line if we need to increase capacity. We’ll be discussing this with local communities and Highland Council as part of our preparations to build the factory.”
