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.

iGA update: Bahrain's aluminium-driven imports surge 5% in November 2024

EDITED BY : PRATYUSHA CHATTERJEE 2MINS READ

The Information & eGovernment Authority (iGA) of Bahrain has released its foreign trade report for November 2024, revealing a significant 5 per cent increase in non-oil imports. This growth, driven by strong demand for aluminium and other key materials, saw the total value of non-oil imports reach BD 478 million (USD 1.27 billion) compared to BD 454 million (USD 1.20 billion) in the same period of 2023.

China remains a major supplier

China continued to dominate as Bahrain's primary import source, contributing a substantial BHD 73 million (USD 193.70 million) or 15 per cent of the total import value.

Aluminium oxide Takes the Lead

The report underscores the importance of the aluminium sector in Bahrain's import landscape. Aluminium oxide emerged as the top imported product, accounting for BHD 50 million (USD 132.5 million) or 10 per cent of the total. This significant demand for aluminium oxide suggests a robust domestic market for industries reliant on this crucial material.

Diversified Import Base

While China remains a key supplier, Bahrain's import base is diversifying. Australia followed China as a major source, contributing BHD 53 million (USD 140.45 million), while the United Arab Emirates secured the third position with BHD 38 million (USD 100.68 million) in imports.

Aluminium alloys play major role

Unwrought aluminium alloys were recorded as the top products exported in November 2024 with BD101 million (32 per cent), followed by agglomerated iron ores and concentrates Alloyed with a value of BHD30 million (9 per cent) and Unwrought aluminium not alloyed with BHD24 million (8 per cent).

Key Takeaways:

The 5 per cent increase in non-oil imports signals a positive trend in Bahrain's economic activity.
China's continued dominance as a major supplier underscores the importance of the bilateral trade relationship.
The surge in aluminium oxide imports highlights the growing significance of the aluminium sector in the Bahraini economy.
Bahrain's import base is diversifying with contributions from key regional and international partners.
