Aluminum power generation and wind power

US aluminum producers need cheap, clean power.

For the economics to pencil out for either facility, that power will need to be cheap. And it will need to be produced from carbon-free sources, like wind

The Shift Toward Renewable Power in Aluminum Smelting

Coal Power GenerationHydropower GenerationNatural Gas Power GenerationNuclear Power GenerationSolar Power GenerationWind Power GenerationOther Power SourcesTransmission CapacityTotal solar capacity has now reached about the same level as wind capacity, largely due to expansion in Asia (78 GW) in 2020. Major capacity increases occurred in China (49 GW) and Vietnam (11 GW). The U.S. added 15 GW, Japan added over 5 GW, and India and the Republic of Korea both expanded solar capacity by more than 4 GW. Aluminum is the singleSee more on lightmetalage chaluminium
