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.

November 2022: Indonesia accounted as the largest alumina supplier to China; alumina export to Russia ranked highest

EDITED BY : RUPANKAR MAJUMDER 2MINS READ

According to the data revealed by the General Administration of Customs of China, it has been reported that 196,000 tonnes of alumina were imported into China in November 2022, representing an increase of 24.2 per cent over the previous year and a reduction of 21.8 per cent over the previous month.

Alumina shipments increased to 85,000 tonnes simultaneously, up 984.9 per cent on the year and 45.6 per cent on the month.

Notably, exports to Russia increased by 54.6 per cent MoM to 80,000 tonnes, making up 93.7 per cent of all monthly exports.

Between January and November, total alumina imports were 1.87 million metric tonnes, down 39.3 per cent from the previous year, and total alumina exports were 950,000 tonnes, up 719.5 per cent.

The alumina import window remained closed in November in terms of import volume. The CIF prices of imported alumina were only around RMB110 per tonne higher than domestic prices, even though dealers using arbitrage were not encouraged to engage in trading. Chinese businesses continued to buy imported alumina based on stiff demand despite low earnings and a domestic alumina excess. As the largest alumina supplier to China, Indonesia overtook Australia for the first time, making its imports up 45.98 per cent of the overall import volume.

Chinese enterprises typically placed orders based on strict demand when there were import profits from Indonesian alumina purchases.

However, Indonesia's domestically invested alumina plants were running smoothly, resulting in increased production capacity. As a result, an increasing number of Chinese businesses began to import bauxite-processed alumina.

Alumina exports totalled 85,000 tonnes, up 984.9 per cent from the previous year and 45.6 per cent from the last month. Exports to Russia increased by 54.6 per cent MoM to 80,000 tonnes, making up 93.7 per cent of all monthly exports. Overall, Russia remained the top country to which domestic alumina exports were shipped.

SMM asserts that alumina refineries in nations including Malaysia, Vietnam, and India actively wanted to export alumina to Russia. The Russian buyers tended to buy alumina on declines to cut costs while increasing efficiency. Therefore, Chinese alumina purchases decreased.
