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.

According to SMM statistics, China's aluminium production in July 2026 (31 days) increased 1.6 per cent Y-o-Y; and 3.5 per cent M-o-M. Domestic demand was weak, and combined with a pullback in export orders for some downstream products, all industry chain segments were under pressure; however, driven by high processing fees for aluminium rod and billet, downstream procurement demand for liquid aluminium rose, pushing the proportion of liquid aluminium output in China higher.

The proportion of liquid aluminium in the month rose 1.1 percentage points M-o-M to 78.3 per cent, slightly exceeding expectations at the start of the month, with core growth coming from strong processing profits for some products, leading to higher-than-expected demand for liquid aluminium.

Based on SMM's proportion of liquid aluminium calculations, China's aluminium casting ingot production in July fell 15.1 per cent YoY and 1.4 per cent M-o-M.

Capacity changes: As of month-end July, SMM statistics showed China's existing aluminium capacity was approximately 46.29 million tonnes, flat M-o-M.

Production forecast: Entering August 2026, the traditional off-season for downstream continues, and demand for most downstream products is expected to further weaken. However, some primary processed material orders are performing well, boosting downstream enterprises' willingness to purchase liquid aluminium directly. Overall, the proportion of liquid aluminium is expected to rise 0.2 percentage points to 78.5 per cent.
