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

and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

The aluminium shipments premium to the Japanese buyers for October to December closed at $220 per tonne. This shows an increase of 19% from the previous quarter flaunting higher overseas premium and tight supply, six sources involved directly in pricing talks said.

The numbers are higher than the $185 per tonne paid for the July-September quarter, reflecting fifth consecutive quarterly increase, the highest since the 2015 April-June quarter. However, the amount recorded was below the initial offers of $230-$250 made by the producers.

Japan, one of the biggest importers of light metal in Asia as well as the premiums PREM-ALLUM-JP for primary metal shipments has agreed to pay every quarter higher than the benchmark set by London Metal Exchange (LME) for the region.

The sources revealed that, the premium has increased two times from a year ago as demand has increased after the downfall due to the pandemic in the United States as well as Europe. The freight has also elevated amid the tight global container market.

The sources also revealed that the curbs induced on high-pollution industries like the China smelting, one of the biggest producer and consumer of aluminium in the world may in the long run squeeze the global supply.

Prices of aluminium have increased by 47% this year, reaching at $3,000 per tonne last month, the highest number since July 2008.

“Soaring U.S. and European premiums are preventing extra supply from coming to Asia,” said a source at a producer.

Another source stated that increased shipping rate amidst a tight container market was one of the reasons behind the high premiums. Both the producers well as the buyers are expecting that the global market for aluminium which finds its use in the transport and packaging industry to remain tight.

“China’s export of aluminium products to Southeast Asia is expected to decline due to slower output of primary metals, which may tighten supply in the region when economy picks up from the pandemic-induced slump,” revealed a third source at a trading company.
