알루미늄 제조업체 EGA, UAE에서 태양광 발전 발전을 위해 파트너와 협력
Mar 14, 2022
에미레이트 글로벌 알루미늄(EGA)은 UAE에서 더 많은 태양광 발전 용량을 개발하고 알루미늄 생산에 대한 연구를 수행하기 위해 Abu Dhabi National Energy Company(Taqa), Emirates Water and Electricity Company(Ewec) 및 Dubal Holding과 협력하고 있습니다. 탈탄소화.
The partnership, pending approval, will help EGA achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 and support Ewec's strategy to develop more renewable energy projects, Ewec said on Wednesday. It will also boost the production of solar-powered aluminium.
The four companies are planning a deal under which Taka and Dubar Holding will acquire EGA's power generation assets in the UAE, including a 6.47 GW primary combined cycle gas-fired power plant, which will generate electricity based on long-term purchases Agreement (PPA) for supply to the grid.
EGA will draw power from the grid through a long-term supply agreement that will make it the largest single user on the grid, creating predictable and stable electricity demand. The initiative will increase the share of clean energy in EGA's aluminium production, as it will allow it to use existing solar power plants.
The partnership with EGA will allow Ewec to develop more solar power generation capacity in the Gulf state. Projects resulting from the initiative are expected to output more than the country's current total installed solar capacity.
Ewec has overseen the development of two of the largest solar PV projects in the world - the Noor Abu Dhabi and Dhafra PV projects in the UAE. Taka and Abu Dhabi-based renewable energy company Masdar holds a 60 percent stake in Abu Dhabi's 2 gigawatt Al Zafra solar photovoltaic project, in which Ewec will undertake power supply.
EGA CEO Abdul Nasser bin Karban said: "Today, we are taking another historic step towards achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. We also pledge that in the coming decades, , EGA's global competitiveness will be strengthened as not only the world's largest producer of 'premium aluminium' but also one of its most environmentally responsible producers."
Abu Dhabi의 Mubadala Investment Company와 두바이 Investment Corporation이 공동 소유한 EGA는 Jebel Ali와 Al Taweelah에서 알루미늄을 운영합니다. 제련소는 Al Taweelah에서 알루미나 정제소를 운영하고 기니에서 보크사이트 광산을 운영합니다. 2021년에 회사는 254만 톤의 주물을 판매했습니다.
