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.

Increased lightweighting and customization spike the use of aluminium die castings in auto industry

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

The global demand for automotive part die casting market which includes aluminium die casting parts is slated to reach US$11.86 billion (approx.) in 2021, growing at a CAGR of above 7.8% during 2016 and 2021, shows data published in a recent report by Zion Research. The market was valued at around US$7.54 billion in 2015.

According to the report, increasing demand for lightweight automobiles along with rapidly growing automotive industry is mainly responsible for the growth of the automotive part die casting market globally. In addition, energy saving trend, favourable government initiative, and industry regulations, various initiative by EPA to raise the mile per gallons standards from 35.5 miles per gallon (mpg) till 2016 and 54.5 mpg by 2025 have also opened up alluring opportunities for aluminium automotive part die casting industry, the report states

News

vacuum die casting and Pressure die casting are the two major process types involved in the metal die casting market.The same is true for aluminium automotive die casting sector. In 2016, vacuum die casting process is expected to attain greater acceptance, due to minimal porosity and tensile strength of the end products from the process, the report observes.

The gradual shift towards automotive lightweighting and greater customization of the parts spiked up the use of aluminium for die casting parts in the recent years. Technological advancement such as new magnesium thixomolding, a type of semi-solid metal casting by Proto Labs is expected to give aluminium die casting parts a tough competition as a raw material in the coming years.
