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 20% QoQ in the second quarter of 2017; YoY import drops 33%

EDITED BY : BEETHIKA BISWAS 2MINS READ

According to the latest USGS release on Bauxite and Alumina in the Second Quarter 2017, imports of crude and dried bauxite by the U.S. in the second quarter of 2017 were 945,000 tonnes, 20% more than those in the first quarter of 2017 that imported 790,000 metric tons of bauxite in the first quarter of 2017.

However, on a YoY basis, import of bauxite drops 33% from those in the second quarter of 2016. Imports of crude and dried bauxite in the second quarter of 2016 were 1.42 million metric tons (Mt).

Imports of crude and dried bauxite in the first quarter of 2017 were 790,000 tons, 47% less than those in the first quarter of 2016. Imports of crude and dried bauxite in the first quarter of 2016 were 1.51 million tonnes, 45% less than those in the first quarter of 2015.

During 2015, Guinea was the source of 23% of crude and dried bauxite imports by the US. But, Guinea did not supply any bauxite imports during the second quarter 2016 and 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. Alcoa operates a bauxite mine in Guinea that supplied the refinery in Point Comfort, TX Texas.

Jamaica (78%) and Brazil (17%) remain the leading sources of crude and dried bauxite imports for the US. They continue to remain the top bauxite suppliers in the second quarter of 2017. In the first quarter of 2017, import from Jamaica stood at 86% and import from Brazil stood at 14%.
