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.

UAE’s alumina import to rise 19% in 2019; India continues to be the key supplier

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

Being one of the world’s top aluminiumproducing countries, the United Arab Emirates’ import of alumina is expected to rise in 2019 after a year-on-year drop till last year. According to our third-party data, the UAE in 2016 had imported 1.67 million tonnes and from then on the volume dropped year-on-year till 2018. In 2017, the country’s alumina import had stood at 1.36 million tonnes, down 18.5 per cent from 2016. The phenomenon continued in the year 2018 as well, as the UAE imported 1.12 million tonnes, down 33 per cent from 2016 and 18 per cent from 2017. But this year, the country is expected to import a higher volume of alumina at 1.33 million tonnes, up 19 per cent from the previous year.

According to the available data, India is estimated to be the top key supplier of alumina to the UAE in 2019. From 725,503 tonnes in 2018, the UAE’s alumina import from India is likely to increase to 844,131 tonnes, up 16.35 per cent. In 2017, the country had imported 704,150 tonnes after rising 62 per cent from 434,162 tonnes in 2016. This indicates that the UAE’s alumina import from India has been rising year-on-year since 2016.

The United Arab Emirates imports this significant amount of alumina to feed its domestic smelters. Emirates Global Aluminium, popularly known as EGA is one of the leading UAE-based aluminium smelters. It smelts about 1 tonne in every 25 tonnes of aluminium produced worldwide, taking the UAE from no aluminium production to the fifth largest aluminium producing nation in the world.
