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.

Rising importance of product classification and origin identification under the EU CBAM impact on aluminium bars, rods, and non-alloy aluminium extrusions

As the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) gradually extends to downstream aluminium processing products, accurate product classification and origin information are becoming increasingly important and directly affect the assessment of potential carbon exposure. Following the analysis in Part I of CN 76042100 aluminium alloy hollow extrusion and CN 76042990 aluminium alloy solid extrusion, this article further focuses on two products under HS 7604 that are relatively small in scale ...
