Work through a CBAM portfolio — every import line, the cumulative threshold and costs to 2034

Assess up to twenty import lines at once: per line the CBAM status and 2026 certificate cost, the cumulative 50-tonne de-minimis test across the whole portfolio, a gap analysis of the lines still running on default values, a supplier priority list and a cost projection to 2034 in three price scenarios.

Who it’s for

01Importers with multiple product lines who must test the threshold across their whole import volume rather than per article.

02Procurement and supply chain managers who want to know which suppliers verified emissions data will pay off with most.

03Finance and sustainability teams who want the cost trajectory to 2034 in their multi-year budget.

What the tool does

✓ Up to twenty import lines with their own CN code, country of origin, volume and emissions data, each with its own status outcome✓ A cumulative 50-tonne de-minimis test across all third-country lines together — not per product, as the single-product scanner does✓ A status outcome per line: in scope, out of scope on EU origin, exempt country, below the threshold or incomplete✓ A gap analysis of the lines on default values, ranked by the mark-up you could avoid with verified data✓ A supplier priority list by cost per line, with the recommended action per supplier✓ A 2026–2034 projection in three price scenarios, tracking both the free allocation phase-out and the price path

The threshold is cumulative, and so are the costs to come

Per product you may stay under 50 tonnes, but the threshold applies across your whole CBAM import volume. Five lines of fifteen tonnes each sit well above it. A portfolio calculation is therefore not the same as five separate ones: the threshold is tested once and then feeds through to every line. Electricity and hydrogen moreover have no threshold at all and do not count towards the total.

The second reason to view the portfolio as a whole is the cost trajectory. In 2026, 97.5% of embedded emissions still falls under the free allocation; the projection carries that phase-out through to a full obligation. What is a few thousand euros today is an order of magnitude larger under a full obligation and a higher price path. The tool shows which lines carry that effect and which of them still run on default values — exactly where verified supplier data pays off most. Every report states the factors used, the tool version and the dataset vintage.

Frequently asked questions about this tool

What is the difference from the single-product scanner?

The threshold. The product scanner tests 50 tonnes per product; this tool adds up the volumes of all your third-country lines and tests that sum once. On top of that you get portfolio totals, the gap analysis, supplier priorities and the multi-year projection. The underlying per-line cost calculation is the same.

How reliable is the projection to 2034?

It is a working-out, not a forecast. The projection scales your 2026 cost by two things: the free allocation phase-out schedule and a price path in three scenarios. Both come from the dataset vintage and carry no official citation there. Use the series to see sensitivity — how sharply your costs move — rather than as predicted amounts.

What happens if I select “verified” without an emission factor?

That line computes with the CN code’s default factor, but without the 10% mark-up that goes with default values. The outcome is then too low and unsubstantiated. So enter your supplier’s factor when you set a line to verified; the report shows the factor used per line, so such a line stands out.

Which products can I enter?

The sixty CN codes in this tool’s vintage, spread across cement, iron and steel, aluminium, fertiliser, electricity and hydrogen. That is a subset of Annex I; if your code is not there, that line cannot be assessed. The country list covers the EU member states, the four exempt countries and a set of third countries with a residual category.
