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 scrap export in January down 16% over last month; YoY volume up 20%

EDITED BY : BEETHIKA BISWAS 2MINS READ

According to the latest Mineral Industry Survey report from US Geological Survey, the U.S. aluminium industry recovered 290,000 tonnes from scrap in January 2019. The amount drops 6% YoY, indicating a drop in domestic recycling. Of this, 172,000 tonnes of aluminium was recovered from new scrap and 118,000 tonne was recovered from old scrap.

The country imported 54,000 tonnes of aluminium scrap in January, up from 48,400 tonnes in December 2018. The US imported about 51,000 tonnes of aluminium scrap in January 2018. This shows a steady import flow of scraps to the US.

On the other hand, the U.S. exported 140,000 tonnes of aluminium scrap in January 2019, down 16% from 167,000 tonnes exported in December 2018. However, the volume increased about 20% from 117,000 tonnes exported in January 2018.

A big change is seen in the aluminium scrap export market dynamics before and after the implementation of 10% tariffs on imported aluminium by the US, and China’s retaliatory tariffs of 50% on US aluminium scrap export. The US exported about 51,700 tonnes of scrap to China in January 2018 and the volume dropped to 36,400 tonnes in January 2019. The scrap export to China significantly dropped in mid-2018 and has slowly picked up in December 2018 after the positive development in the trade negotiations between China and the US.
