We believe that achieving nothing, or zero emissions, is possible. Hydro has been working to decarbonize its operations since the 1990s. Today, we are committed to being able to produce aluminium while emitting nothing.
The challenge of climate change transcends borders and industries. To reach the global targets set by the Paris climate agreement, we must collectively decarbonize energy systems, produce for circularity, and recycle resources already in use. Aluminium is a key enabler in the green transition, but production must become emission free across the entire value chain.
In a hard-to-abate industry like ours, we are determined to achieve zero emissions. By using a cleaner energy matrix based on renewables such as hydro, wind, and solar power, we're already delivering low-carbon aluminium to the world to decarbonize other key industries. In 2022, we produced our first batch of near-zero aluminium using 100% post-consumer scrap, with work now ongoing to optimize the production.
We are committed to a 30 percent reduction in our carbon emissions by 2030, with a goal of achieving net zero in Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 2050. Hydro’s roadmap aims to create multiple pathways that can work together to help us reach near zero products today, and zero products in the future.
