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.

Soaring China aluminium structures exports to reach an estimated 658242 tonnes in 2016

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

China's export of aluminium products has barely taken a backseat despite the worldwide hue and cry over aluminium makers losing their markets to the China onslaughts. Time and again various industry bodies have voiced their concern over the alleged ‘non-competitive’ trade initiatives that China is taking resort to; but that has hardly had any effect on the exports. Given the rising capacity addition in the country along with old capacity restarts, it is very obvious that the excess output will go out of the country to the international markets after meeting domestic demand. The restraint which the Chinese government and aluminium makers should have shown in dealing with the capacity rise and overflow of aluminium products, however, has not been there.

China’s export of aluminium structures has soared significantly from 383689.39 tonnes in 2014 to an estimated total of 658242.36 tonnes in 2016. In 2015, the country exported 632336.82 tonnes of aluminium structures. From 2014 till 2016, the change has been a gigantic 71.55 per cent. The following graph clearly reflects the year-over-year change of aluminium structures export from China:

Value-wise too, China’s aluminium structures exports have grown over the last three years. In 2015, China shipped aluminium structures worth US$2.66 million, up 76.15 per cent from 2014 when the figure stood at US$1.51 million. In 2016, the total export value of aluminium structures from China is estimated to reach US$2.79 million, a 4.88 per cent increase from the previous fiscal and a significant leap of 84.76 per cent from 2014.

News
The U.S. Department of Commerce is reportedly investigating several cases of alleged import tariffs evasion by the Chinese companies. The China Non-ferrous Metals Fabrication Industrial Association has, however, reacted strongly against these allegations. According to China's customs data, the country exported only 1.07 million tonnes of aluminium products including bars, sections and strips to Mexico between 2001 and 2015.
