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.

Ghana eyes to become an integrated aluminium producer, seeks strategic partner to upgrade VALCO’s smelter

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 1MINS READ

Ghana, popularly known for abundant bauxite reserves, is now reportedly aiming at creating an integrated aluminium industry in the country, said Ghana Lands and Natural Resources minister Samuel Jinapor on Monday, June 13.

With that aim, Ghana is running campaigns and trying its best to find a strategic partner which would help upgrade a state-owned Volta Aluminium Company’s (VALCO) aluminium smelter, said Jinapore on the same day at the Africa CEO Forum conference in Abidjan.

"Today we are insisting ... that exploration, prospecting, mining, refining, smelting, the downstream industry, all of it must be in Ghana," Jinapor said.

Ghana’s move to turn the country into an integrated aluminium producer and expand domestic processing capabilities looks like Africa’s another top bauxite producer, Guinea, which motivates its domestic miners to build alumina refineries.

However, Jinapore did not mention specifically that how much fund the government is expecting from the strategic partner to revamp the smelter.

VALCO, established in 1967, was acquired by the Ghana government in 2008. But later on, it became a subsidiary of GIADEC when the government handed over its 100 per cent shares to it, as part of its mandate, under the Integrated Aluminium Industry.
