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.

Market surplus lets alumina price on LME hardly cross $315/t when aluminium soars past $3500/t

EDITED BY : ARANYA MONDAL 6MINS READ

At a time when aluminium prices are climbing sharply, alumina - the very raw material that feeds it - is barely moving. This unusual split raises a simple question: why is the input material weakening while the output strengthens? The answer lies in a mix of supply, expansion, demand shifts, and geopolitical shocks that are pulling the two markets apart.

The divergence has been clearly visible since late 2025, with both commodities moving in opposite directions and creating an imbalance across the value chain.

Alumina price opened 2026 at USD 304 per tonne and briefly touched USD 309.14 in early January, but failed to sustain momentum. Prices stayed confined to a narrow range through the month before softening. By mid-March, they had dropped to USD 300.14 per tonne and eventually settled at USD 306.8 per tonne by the end of the quarter.

This declining trend was also evident in the final quarter of 2025, as prices gradually fell from USD 321 per tonne in October to USD 310.18 per tonne by year-end.
