What goes into the CBAM figure for aluminium from Mozal?
Only direct emissions count: anode carbon, perfluorocarbons from anode effects, and fuel for casting and anode baking. Power comes under a supply contract through the regional grid and is reported, not charged. Check the plant's current operating status, as its power supply has been under review.
Direct emissions
- Anode consumption per tonne of metal.
- Perfluorocarbons, as CO2 equivalent.
- Gas or fuel for casting and anode baking.
Electricity
Report kWh per tonne and the factor for the power actually supplied, from the contract or the supplier. Do not assume a national grid factor for a dedicated supply.
Period
Report by period operated. If production stops or restarts, say so.
What Senseible does here
Senseible keeps each site's fuel, power and production records together, so the embedded emissions you send an EU importer trace back to dated documents.
