Overview

Most aluminium exporters do not smelt. They buy ingots, slabs or billets and form them. For them the biggest part of the CBAM figure is the metal they bought, not their own furnace. This module covers what data you need from metal suppliers, and what happens when you cannot get it.

You will learn

• Which inputs are precursors and which are not.
• What data to collect for each bought precursor.
• When you can use a supplier's actual value.
• How to average across suppliers and periods.
• Which default to use when data or origin is missing.
