In order to calculate the emissivity of an object, you first need bot: the power of emissions from the target object, and the Power that would be emitted by a black body of the same temperature. This value can be procured using the Stefan Boltzmann Law of Radiation. Albedo, however, is a far simpler quantity, relying only on the input and output energies of the object.
