As we wrap up the year, we look forward to what must be done to accelerate the decarbonisation of the aluminium industry in 2024. Strong actions will be needed by industry players to ensure we are on track to net-zero by 2050🤝 This is exactly what our Director General, Paul Voss, was talking about at our 14 November event launching our new report "Net-Zero by 2050: Science-based Decarbonisation Pathways for the European Aluminium Industry". In his opening speech, he emphasised how important it is to not to just stick to the words and promises, but to convert those promises into reality. That requires showing actionable pathways to achieving the 2050 goals of reducing emissions by over 90%, as showed in our report. 🔗 Read our report here ➡ https://lnkd.in/eEHXfWBh #aluminium #netzero #pathways #sustainability

🚀 What a morning it's been ! Today EUROPEAN ALUMINIUM hosted an inspirational satellite event from the EU Raw Materials Week: 'Shaping the Future: Net-Zero Aluminium 'Made in Europe'!' 🌱 In the #greentransition era, aluminium is a key player in sustainable technologies. As we face a surge in #aluminium demand, we're tackling the challenge head-on: How do we boost production without increasing carbon footprint? Our goal is steadfast: accelerate towards rapid decarbonization. 🔍 Curious about our strategy ? We've got just the thing! At the event, we launched the report "Net-Zero by 2050: Science-based Decarbonisation Pathways for the European Aluminium Industry." This document is more than a plan; it's our commitment to shape our future. 🌿 🔗 Get the insights from our report here: https://lnkd.in/epC8xeME 🗞️ For a quick read, check out our press release: https://lnkd.in/e4_Z7UbS #Sustainability #NetZero #ClimateAction #EURawMaterialsWeek #RawMaterialsWeek #CRMA

🌐 Exciting day behind at the trialogues on the #NZIA! 🚀 Here's a quick rundown of our key stances: ➡ Supporting Council of the European Union's proposals clarifying the scope of application and allowing for aluminium producing industrial facilities to present funding requests as part of the Net Zero Strategic Projects under Section II of the Regulation. ➡ Advocating for a clear definition of "primarily used" and the retention of a non-exhaustive list of components in the production of NZIA technologies. ➡ Urging the inclusion of "Transformative industrial technologies" in Article 10 for eligibility to also apply as Net Zero Strategic Projects. ➡ Proposing an amendment to Article 22 to mandate the European Commission's list updates for net zero final technology products and specific components considered as primarily used to produce net zero technologies. 🔗 See here our position paper ➡ https://lnkd.in/dNGQQ2Hy 🔗 Read here our blog post ➡ https://lnkd.in/d-P9xAdu #netzero #aluminium #priorities

In Europe’s journey towards meeting climate targets, the role of #aluminium cannot be understated. The strategic significance of producing aluminium in Europe becomes evident when considering its low carbon footprint. 👣 Our Director Circular Economy & Raw Materials, George Karkampasis, emphasises how importing aluminium that has three times the carbon footprint of European produced aluminium not only counteracts Europe’s net-zero goals, but results in harmful carbon leakage. Therefore, we support the introduction of an Industrial Deal and stress the importance of having aluminium #madeinEurope. Locally produced aluminium safeguards against increased dependencies on external actors and creates a strong industrial base which ensures a resilient and self-sufficient Europe. 🔗 Check out our report Net-Zero by 2050: Science-based Decarbonisation Pathways for the European Aluminium Industry ➡ https://lnkd.in/eEHXfWBh 🔗 Dive into the report’s summary ➡ https://lnkd.in/dnWFJWR8 #netzero #carbonfootprint #NZIA #EU

As we celebrate #WorldEnvironmentDay we are proud of the steps we are taking both as a company, and as an industry, to embrace sustainability. Mechatherm have taken strides towards a net zero future, in our day to day operations and in our technologies, becoming one of the first to deploy hydrogen as a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Research from International Aluminium Institute shows that for the first time, total greenhouse gas emissions from the global aluminium industry did not grow, but have shown a slight decline, even though aluminium production has increased. We look forward to joining Aluminium Federation (ALFED) tomorrow for their EnvironmentAL Sustainability Strategy Day to discuss advancements in research and technologies that will allow us to continue this trend, bringing greener aluminium and a more sustainable future 🌱 #SustainableAluminium #Recycling #NetZero
