  • Green transition in major regions requires more aluminium, e.g., higher aluminium content in EVs
  • Higher end-product adaption of aluminium due to recyclability
  • Focus on ESG could phase significant upside for green products
  • Primary aluminum based on renewable power will qualify under the EU taxonomy criteria
    • No thresholds have been included for recycling. All secondary aluminium is taxonomy compliant.
  • Increasing cost of supply towards next decade due to new projects with higher capex based on hydropower
  • Restrictions on supply growth, especially in China, reduce risk of sustained over-capacity next decade
