We have the competence and experience to continue to lead in low-carbon aluminium and renewable energy. That is our core, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do more. We will also grow in new areas.

There are three key global trends that combined create an opportunity for us to expand, innovate and do new things. Sustainability, electrification and urbanization are creating huge global demand for what we can produce, today and in the future.
