This cutting-edge technology will enable Cameroon’s sole aluminium smelter to enhance production efficiency, optimise power utilisation, and increase operational stability, targeting to save as much as 1 million tonnes of CO2 emissions annually. 

This collaboration will not only steer operational efficiency and environmental sustainability but will also cater to the increasing worldwide demand for Green Aluminium. With the implementation of the system, Alucam will be able to return to full capacity utilisation by the end of 2025 while meeting its sustainability goals.

Utilising hydro energy by Alucam for aluminium production also underscores its dedication to Green Aluminium production.

"Collaborating with Bathco and Metsol represents a transformative milestone for Alucam, steering us towards a new era of sustainable Aluminium production. The integration of APC+ technology into our hydropower-driven operations places us at the vanguard of the Green Aluminium revolution. This initiative not only guarantees the longevity of Aluminium production in Cameroon but also ensures the continued contribution to employment and economic value within the region. Through this partnership, we are taking a significant leap forward in fulfilling the worldwide demand for environmentally responsible Aluminium, and embarking on a new chapter in our longstanding collaboration with our trusted partners, Bathco and Metsol" said Alain Malong, General Manager of Alucam. 

Andreas Schwarz, CEO of Bathco, said: "The push for renewable energy in producing primary Aluminium is key to decarbonizing the industry. Bathco is at the forefront, expanding Green Aluminium supply and proving such efforts' viability with Metsol and Alucam. Our investment underscores our belief in Alucam's Green Aluminium and our vision for a sustainable industry. We're not just aiming for a greener future; we're actively creating it, continuing to lead the Green Aluminium Revolution.”
