Aluminum is vital to helping the world move closer to net zero. Light and durable, it is ideal for renewable energy solutions such as wind and solar farms. It is central to the aviation, rail, and automotive industries by helping reduce fuel consumption and emissions. And as a great conductor of energy, aluminum is used to electrify trains, further reducing emissions, and produce lithium-ion batteries, used for electric and hybrid vehicles.
Bechtel has partnered with some of the world's principal producers to meet growing global demand. Working with customers across the entire value chain, we have successfully completed major greenfield and brownfield bauxite, alumina, and aluminum projects in Australia, Canada, Iceland, the Middle East, and New Zealand. By collaborating on these major initiatives, we have positively impacted local economies by creating jobs and contributing to local and national GDPs in a responsible and sustainable manner.
