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 import of bauxite up 13% QoQ in the second quarter of 2017; YoY import drops 20%

EDITED BY : BEETHIKA BISWAS 2MINS READ

According to the latest USGS release on Bauxite and Alumina in the Third Quarter 2017, imports of crude and dried bauxite by the U.S. in Q3 2017 were 914,000 tonnes, 13% more than the revised total of 812,000 tonnes in the second quarter of 2017. However, on a YoY basis, import of bauxite drops 20% from the amount in the third quarter of 2016 and 68% less than those in the third quarter of 2015. Imports of crude and dried bauxite in the third quarter of 2016 were 1.14 million tonnes.

Imports of crude and dried bauxite in the first quarter of 2017 were 790,000 tons, 47% less than 1.51 million tonnes in the first quarter of 2016. Though the imports are falling YoY, they are up quarter on quarter in 2017. The decrease in bauxite imports YOY is attributable to the temporary and permanent shutdown of a number of aluminium smelters and alumina refinery in the US.

Jamaica and Brazil continue to remain the top bauxite suppliers in the second quarter of 2017. In the second quarter of 2017, import from Jamaica stood at 78% and import from Brazil stood at 17%. While in the third quarter, Jamaica exported 76% of bauxite and Brazil’s export increased to 23%.

For the period of three quarters from January to September 2017, the total U.S. import of bauxite stood at 2.5 million tonnes. For the full year 2016, the U.S. imported 5 million tonnes of bauxite and year over year, the U.S. reports a significant fall in imports.

The U.S. also exports bauxite mostly to Canada and some amount to Mexico. In Q3 2017, the U.S. exported 1,580 tonnes of bauxite, down from 1,710 tonnes in Q3 2017. For the period of three quarters from January to September 2017, the total U.S. export of bauxite stood at 3,940 tonnes.
