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.

Norway’s low-carbon aluminium gets greener from Hydro REDUXA to Alcoa EcoLum

Low-carbon aluminium is becoming an increasingly important product category as manufacturers look to reduce the embodied emissions of their aluminium supply chains. Norway is a low-carbon aluminium hub because its smelters are powered largely by renewable hydropower, enabling producers such as Norsk Hydro and Alcoa to manufacture certified low-carbon aluminium products including Hydro REDUXA, Hydro CIRCAL, EcoLum™ and EcoDura™. Against this backdrop, the following companies and production ope ...

Toyota GR GT’s aluminium chassis is built to be driven hard

Toyota has opened up the GR GT’s chassis, and the most interesting part may be what happens if owners push the supercar too far on a racetrack. The GR GT is Toyota’s first vehicle with an all-aluminium body frame. It uses nine large aluminium castings connected to aluminium tubes and extrusions, creating a structure designed to be light, strong and rigid. The chassis was shown alongside the GR GT3 racing car at the 2026 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, giving spectators a rare look at the ...

Detroit automakers warn USMCA revamp could add billions in costs

US car companies are already absorbing tariffs on steel, aluminium, vehicle parts and vehicles imported from Mexico and Canada. Executives now fear that Washington’s proposals for the revised trade agreement could increase those costs further ahead of talks with Mexica ...
