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.

Siemens Mobility to deliver aluminium trains worth €5 billion fulfilling orders by Austrian Federal Railways

EDITED BY : MAYURAKSHI GANGULY 2MINS READ

Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) recently announced signing a significant framework agreement with Siemens Mobility, valued at more than five billion euros. The deal entails the delivery of up to 540 single-deck electric multiple-unit aluminium trains, which are expected to enter service in 2028.

These trains are developed from the manufacturer's Mireo platform, a modular system that boasts low energy consumption and lightweight aluminium construction, making it an environmentally friendly choice. The Mireo platform is designed as a successor to the 'Mainline' variant of Siemens's Desiro EMUs. It can form trainsets between two and seven cars long, and the railcars can achieve a top speed of up to 160 kilometres per hour (99 mph).

Interestingly, the first Mireo units were launched at the 2016 InnoTrans trade fair, and the German railway operator, DB Regio, was the first to purchase twenty-four three-car trainsets with a passenger capacity of 220 in February 2017. The use of the Mireo platform by ÖBB is a testament to the quality and reliability of these trains, and it is a significant step towards more sustainable and efficient transportation in Austria.

The CEO of Siemens Mobility, Michael Peter, narrated: "Siemens Mobility and ÖBB have long enjoyed a strong and trusting partnership. We are proud to be delivering further development of the Mireo platform to ÖBB for the company's new fleets. With numerous innovations, low energy consumption, and a high level of passenger comfort and convenience, the new Mireo trains will help make ÖBB's local and regional transport even more attractive."
