Changing from fuel oil to liquified natural gas at our Aluorte alumina refinery in Brazil will cut hundreds of thousands of tonnes of CO2 emissions.
In this Hydro Talks podcast to talk about the “Alunorte fuel switch project” is John Thuestad, Head of Hydro’s Bauxite & Alumina business, and Bjørn Kjetil Mauritzen, Head of Sustainability in Hydro.
They describe how the switch not only will cut carbon emissions, it will also improve the environment for our workers and the local communities, as well as build out critical infrastructure that can be a foundation for industrial and economic growth in the region.
