Hydro completes sale to Glencore1.12.2023 16:30:00 CET | Press release
Hydro has completed the USD 1.11 billion transaction for the sale of 30 percent interest in the Brazilian alumina refinery Hydro Alunorte and Hydro’s 5 percent interest in the bauxite producer Mineracão Rio do Norte (MRN), together with Vale’s 40 percent stake in MRN. “We are looking forward to work with Glencore to further develop Alunorte. Glencore has broad industrial experience within metals and mining, which adds to the significant progress our bauxite and alumina area has made to bring down the footprint of alumina production. This enables Hydro to strengthen our position in low-carbon aluminium,” says President and CEO, Hilde Merete Aasheim. Hydro and Glencore will continue efforts to reduce carbon emissions from Alunorte through the fuel switch project that aims to substitute fuel oil with LNG, and the electrification of boilers. This will bring Alunorte to the first decile on the global carbon curve already in 2025, positioning Alunorte as a leading supplier of low-carbon alum

Dette gjør Hydro i stand til å styrke vår posisjon innen lavkarbonaluminium, sier konsernsjef Hilde Merete Aasheim. Hydro og Glencore vil fortsette arbeidet med å redusere karbonutslippene fra Alunorte gjennom drivstoffbytteprosjektet som har som mål å erstatte tungolje med LNG, og elektrifisering av fyrkjeler. Dette vil bringe Alunorte til den første desilen på den globale karbonkurven allerede i 2025, og posisjonere Aluno
