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.

EU CBAM after H1 2026: Is carbon becoming aluminium's new €75/tCO₂ trade premium?

The European Union's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) entered its definitive regime on January 1, 2026, turning what had been a reporting exercise during 2023-2025 into a mechanism with an eventual financial liability. Aluminium sits alongside iron and steel, cement, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen among the sectors covered. The European Commission fixed the CBAM certificate price at EUR 75.36 per tonne of CO₂ for Q1 2026, followed by EUR 75.28 per tonne of CO₂ for Q2. The pric ...
