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.

US adds five Xinjiang aluminium producers to forced labour entity list

US tightens aluminium scrutiny

The US has added 43 Chinese companies, including several aluminium producers, to its forced labour entity list, increasing pressure on automakers to review their aluminium supply chains.

The companies were added under the Uyghur Forced Labour Prevention Act (UFLPA). This US law presumes goods produced by listed entities are linked to forced labour in China's Xinjiang region. They are therefore prohibited from entering the US.

The list includes five major aluminium producers based in Xinjiang, highlighting growing scrutiny of the aluminium sector.

According to a Human Rights Watch report published in February 2024, more than 15 per cent of China's aluminium production, equal to around 9 per cent of global aluminium output, comes from Xinjiang.

The report noted that aluminium producers, along with the coal mines and power plants supplying them, have taken part in Chinese government labour transfer programmes involving Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslim minorities.

In July 2024, the US government listed aluminium as a high-priority sector for enforcement under the UFLPA because the metal is widely used in manufacturing around the world.

Aluminium is used to make many vehicle parts, such as frames, engine blocks, wheels and battery foil for electric vehicles. Many of these components are supplied to Chinese carmakers and exported to different markets worldwide.

The development is expected to increase pressure on automakers supplying the US market to trace their aluminium supply chains down to the raw material level and avoid sourcing from companies linked to Xinjiang.
