CBAM maths, for a steel buyer who asked me yesterday
正文
A German buyer asked: "how much will this actually cost me per tonne?"
Here is the honest answer — the range is huge, because it depends on your supplier's actual emissions, not on a published rate.
What we can compute today, per tonne of product:
· embedded emissions from electricity + precursors
· the gap versus the EU benchmark
· the certificate cost at the current auction estimate
For steel the gap can run from a few euros to well over a hundred, depending on route (BF-BOF vs EAF) and grid factor.
Anyone quoting you a single number without asking about your production route is guessing.
First annual declaration + surrender: 30 September 2027, for 2026 imports. Certificates go on sale 1 February 2027.
