CBAM for Aluminium Producers
Sector-specific CBAM support for aluminium producers and processors serving the EU.
CBAM for Aluminium Producers
Aluminium is a CBAM goods category in which indirect (electricity-related) emissions are especially significant given the sector’s energy intensity. Both direct and indirect embedded emissions may be relevant depending on the product and rules in force. Social Lab helps aluminium producers capture the right data.

CBAM for Aluminium Producers — questions we get
Why do indirect emissions matter for aluminium?
Aluminium production is highly electricity-intensive, so indirect emissions from power use are a major part of its footprint.
Which products are in scope?
Aluminium covers a range of CN codes including primary and semi-finished goods; confirm against the current Annex.
Does my power source affect the number?
Yes. Electricity sourcing feeds the indirect-emissions calculation, so it must be documented.
