CBAM Cost Calculator
Estimate your CBAM cost exposure by product, origin, and volume. Uses the statutory phase-in schedule and live EUA price. Carbon intensity ranges are sourced from IEA, World Steel Association, GCCA, IAI, and IFA.
Covers power sector only. ~¥70 CNY/tCO₂. Does not directly cover steel, cement, or aluminium producers.
Only mandatory carbon prices (ETS, carbon tax) are deductible. Voluntary offsets are not. Details →
Intensity: 1.8–2.3 tCO₂e/tonne · IEA Iron & Steel Technology Roadmap (2020) (2020)
Data match: country-specific
Estimated CBAM cost · 2030 · China
Low/mid/high reflects the range of carbon intensity reported for this product and origin. Best-in-class producers are near the low end; older or less efficient installations are near the high end.
Low intensity
€66,034
1.8 tCO₂e/tonne
Mid intensity
€77,039
2.1 tCO₂e/tonne
High intensity
€84,376
2.3 tCO₂e/tonne
1,000 t × 2.1 tCO₂e/tonne × €75.64/tCO₂e × 48.5% = €77,039

Indicative estimate only. Actual CBAM obligation depends on installation-specific embedded emissions verified by an accredited verifier, the EUA price at the time of certificate surrender, and any carbon price demonstrably paid in the country of origin. Carbon intensity ranges reflect published industry data and may differ from your supplier's actual emissions.
