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.

Nalco likely to put its aluminium smelter plans in Iran on hold

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 3MINS READ

India's state-owned aluminium producer National Aluminium Company (Nalco), in all likelihood, is planning to hold back its greenfield aluminium smelter plan in Iran. The Navaratna PSU had planned to come up with a 0.5 million tonne per annum (mtpa) aluminium smelting facility in the West Asian country to cash in on the easy availability of cheaper natural gas there, but the current market conditions do not seem to favour the project.

"Currently, the market conditions do not favour us to set up an aluminium smelter in Iran. A new overseas smelter needs substantial investment and we would evaluate all factors before going ahead with the plan. Nalco has domestic commitments as of now and we are going for a ramp-up of our existing smelting unit at Angul (Odisha)," said a senior executive from Nalco.

The aluminium major had signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development Renovation Organisation in May this year, to set up an aluminium smelter in Iran. The plant was supposed to come up at the Chabahar free trade zone at a total estimated cost of US$2 billion.

Nalco's decision to keep in abeyance its proposed plan to build the smelter-cum-gas-based power plant in Iran visibly arises from the Union mines ministry's direction to it to this effect. Lately, Mines minister Piyush Goyal asked Nalco to rethink its plan for any overseas smelter now and focus more on value addition back home instead. The ministry has categorically asked Nalco to strategize a roadmap for expanding its aluminium production capacity from the current 0.46 mtpa to 2mtpa. Nalco had set a target to attain its full capacity of 0.46 mtpa in the next financial year.

However, Nalco has kept its options open to go for a toll-smelting arrangement with some Iranian companies. Under this proposal, the company will divert a portion of its surplus exportable alumina to the Iranian smelters for use in aluminium smelting.
