The power used to produce aluminium is a significant source of carbon emissions. In China – a major aluminium production hub – the government and producers are already taking steps to boost the use of greener power sources, but more must be done. If stakeholders across China – the government, producers, utilities, and innovators – work together, research shows renewables could account for more than 50% of the power supply for aluminium production by 2045.
Demand for aluminium is growing to further the global energy transition. Switching to secondary, or recycled, aluminium production will lower the high emissions toll associated with primary aluminium. The automative and packaging sectors offer the best opportunities for recovering aluminium scrap. Aluminium is renowned for its nearly infinite recyclability; this attribute not only makes it ideal to reduce waste generally, but also presents an opportunity to reduce emissions in its own sector.
