Driving forwards clean aluminium | critical factors
In 2022 we developed an Aluminium Sector Transition Strategy in collaboration with a diverse set of industry leaders. This provides a shared vision for a clean aluminium future, modelling of pathways, real economy milestones and the industry, policy and finance actions required to get there. Assumptions have not been updated since publication, but the STS still represents a quantitative reference point.

A rare bit of positive news in a turbulent year: clean industry investment is accelerating. Data from our newly-published Global Project Tracker update shows that 19 commercial-scale clean industrial projects reached final investment decision in the past six months – more than double the pace of a year ago.
Kassø, in southern Denmark, is now home to one of the world’s first operational e-methanol facilities, producing 42,000 tonnes per year from a 304 MW solar park, a 52 MW electrolyser and biogenic CO₂ captured from a local biogas facility. It reached FID in January 2022 without operating subsidies and started operations in 2025.
The flagship project demonstrates a pathway for building green ammonia facilities, with its repurposed brownfield site, access to round-the-clock green power and a lower cost of capital because of its location in India. It also shows the importance of thinking about the entire value chain when looking at the viability of clean industry projects – not just end customers but suppliers as well.
