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.

Upward trajectory of China’s primary aluminium production is leaving strain on the alumina market

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 3MINS READ

China achieved a record-high production of primary aluminium, reaching 3.65 million tonnes in May 2024, comparable to output levels seen in August and September of the previous year. This surge is bolstered by the restarting of smelters in Yunnan after a prolonged shutdown, promising an annual output of 43 million tonnes. However, this upward trajectory has significantly affected the alumina market, the key raw material for aluminium production, resulting in constrained supply and fluctuating ore prices.
