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.

Press Metal Partners with Xi'an Jiaotong University for carbon capture research

EDITED BY : RUPANKAR MAJUMDER 2MINS READ

Press Metal Aluminium Holdings Bhd, a Malaysia-based world-class aluminium producer, has signed a collaboration agreement with China's Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU) to advance carbon capture and utilisation research. This new agreement builds on a memorandum of understanding established in August 2023.

The joint venture aims to create a commercially viable carbon capture and utilisation model tailored to Press Metal's manufacturing processes. Under the terms of the agreement, both Press Metal and XJTU will jointly own the intellectual property resulting from this research.

Xi'an Jiaotong University has a strong track record in the field, having conducted 13 research projects on carbon dioxide capture and secured ten related patents. The project began in September 2023 and is scheduled for completion by August 31, 2026.

The initiative is supported by a grant of RMB 12 million (approximately RM7.7 million) from Press Metal. This funding will cover system design, research expenses, professional training, and knowledge transfer milestones.

In its latest annual report, Press Metal reaffirmed its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The company's emissions totalled 11.8 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent in 2023, with a significant portion falling under the Scope 1 and Scope 2 categories. However, the company has made strides in reducing emissions intensity, with figures dropping from 4.1 to 3.3 tonnes CO₂e per tonne of aluminium from 2022 to 2023, demonstrating our dedication to sustainability.

As of the end of 2023, Press Metal's current smelting capacity stands at 1.08 million tonnes per annum, while its extrusion capacity is 230,000 tonnes per annum.
