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.

OMC and Vedanta Resources team up to secure bauxite mining rights in Niyamgiri Hills

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

Odisha Mining Corporation (OMC) and Vedanta Resources have teamed up to find a headway together in the Niyamgiri bauxite mining issue which has long been the centre of a multi-faceted problem involving the state, the mining conglomerate, and major political parties at the Centre.

OMC has appealed in the Supreme Court to reorganize the Gram Sabha in Niyamgiri so that it along with Vedanta Resources can mine the Niyamagiri hills by getting the local inhabitants Dongria Kondhs on their side.

News

The State government, on the other hand, has given prospecting license of mining areas in Koraput to Sera Sterlite, a subsidiary of Vedanta Resources, for 150 hectors of bauxite reserve in Dangadeula hill for laterite mining. If laterite is discovered, then Sesa Sterlite will get lease for 20 years without any hassles as laterite is a minor mineral and comes under the control of the State government.

However, if high bauxite content is found then Sesa Sterlite will have to apply of bauxite mining lease. And in the present situation of bidding it might not be easy for Vedanta or Odisha Mining Corporation to get the lease.

In the midst of all these developments, activists have upped the ante of their agitation across vast areas in these two regions. At stake are the operations of the alumina refinery at Lanjigarh which has been starved of bauxite- the chief raw material for the refinery.

Vedanta's Lanjigarh refinery requires three million tonnes of bauxite as raw material every year to produce one million tonnes of alumina. It, however, does not have any captive bauxite mining lease or backward linkages for the ore. The refinery, therefore, is completely dependent on external supplies. To satiate its bauxite requirement, the refinery sources the ore from states like Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra etc. and also depends on bauxite imports from New Guinea.
