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.

Toyota and BMW preparing for production suspension due to COVID-19; Secondary aluminium demand on further hard-hit

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

The fright for the secondary aluminium to be hard hit is amounting as automotive giants like Toyota and BMW have decided to suspend their European production sites until further notice, in an attempt to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19.

As the secondary aluminium alloys DIN226 is widely used in Europe for the manufacture of diesel-engine cars, production cutbacks will weaken demand for the material, according to some market participants.

Toyota and BMW preparing for production suspension at European plants; Secondary aluminium demand on further hard-hit

Toyota will close the plants in the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, France, Turkey, Poland over this week, as announced by the Japanese automaker itself in a statement on Wednesday, March 18.

Toyota said it took the decision based on the government restrictions of people's movements designed to stop the spread of the virus, supply chain disruptions, and falling sales. Showrooms are shut in countries with strict population lockdowns; however, service centres remain open.

Toyota said that it would continue supplying car parts to ensure relentless servicing. It also said it would keep on staff at factories for preparing for the launch of new models, for example in Valenciennes France, where the new Yaris would start production later this year.

"Processes and projects deemed essential to a smooth re-start and to the future activity of the plants, such as new vehicle projects, will be maintained with necessary staff,” Toyota said.

BMW is also reportedly preparing to suspend production at its plants in Europe, Rosslyn, and South Africa, with effect from the end of this week until April 19, in response to weak market demand and as an attempt to help reduce the risk of spreading the coronavirus.

“We take our responsibility seriously, both when it comes to ensuring the protection and health of our employees and to achieving the best possible balance in terms of profitability,” CEO Oliver Zipse said in a statement on Wednesday.

He also said that the automaker would close dealerships as well in Europe as demand for new cars currently stands frail.

BMW’s Rolls-Royce and Mini brands will also stop production at their UK manufacturing sites. The former said that it would suspend production at its plant in Goodwood, England, for the next two weeks with effect from Monday. The latter will shut its three UK plants on Monday until April 17.
