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.

Volta Aluminium Company stands to benefit from additional 75MW hydro power

EDITED BY : DIPANWITA GUPTA 2MINS READ

An additional hydro power unit is set to bring in more benefits to Ghana’s Volta Aluminium Company (VALCO). The 75 MW unit will help VALCO procure power at a competitive rate of $0.035/kwh in the first quarter of the next financial year.

The cost advantage will expectedly allow the primary aluminium company to add one more pot-line to its current one pot line-equipped production facility, which churns out 40,500 tonnes of the metal.

VALCO Ghana

According to the Select Committee on Mines and Energy on the Annual Budget Estimates report of the Ministry of Energy for the year ending December 31, 2018, the expansion will result in increase in revenue and payment of Value Added Tax to government from $79 million to $150.75 million and $7.6 million to $16.1 million per annum respectively.

The production expansion is further expected to create about 1,200 direct employment, including 200 at VALCO and 1,000 in the downstream industries comprising firms such as Aluworks, Western Rods and Allied Industries.

VALCO will also supply aluminium to a proposed LED manufacturing venture that is expected to create an additional 330 direct employment opportunities.

VALCO is one of the largest enterprises in Ghana and the second-largest aluminium smelter in Africa down south of the Sahara. It was founded by Kaiser Aluminium but is now wholly owned by the Ghana government.
