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.

Sustainable initiative for homeless pets: Boaz–based animal shelter initiates aluminium can collection drive

EDITED BY : SARNALI CHAKRABORTY 2MINS READ

Employees at the Second Chance Shelter in Boaz have unveiled a novel approach to generate funds for homeless pets and reduce trash in North Alabama, promoting sustainability at the same time. Doug McGee, the Shelter Director, is initiating an aluminium can drive named "Green Steps for Homeless Pets" to generate funds for animals at the shelter. He aims to gather one million cans to go 80 miles from the shelter to the Tennessee state boundary.

According to him, the funds obtained from recycling the aluminium cans will benefit the shelter's animals by assisting with the costs of spaying and neutering. Achieving this objective might significantly reduce the number of stray animals in the county. The shelter is indefinitely accepting contributions, as they want to continue collecting until they achieve or exceed their target of one million cans.

“I’d like to imagine a tube of cans that goes from Boaz, Alabama through Guntersville- as we do it, I want to list each town, Albertville, Guntersville, Huntsville to Tennessee just to have fun and see if we can do it. It's good for the environment, the dogs will benefit because a million cans will bring us somewhere around $15,000. It's just a win-win," said McGee.

The aluminium sector is now experiencing a substantial shift, with a prominent focus on sustainability. Recycling plays a crucial part in this change, making it a primary concern for manufacturers and consumers. The sector has redirected its attention towards adopting environmentally sustainable methods and embracing the ideals of a circular economy.

Recycling is imperative in our contemporary society, beset by issues such as a burgeoning population, escalating pollution, soaring energy costs, and depleting reserves of natural resources. Aluminium is a metal that can be recycled endlessly without any deterioration in its quality. Aluminium recycling promotes sustainability and stewardship by holding producers responsible for the impact of their goods on human and environmental well-being.
