The 4th European Green Aluminium Summit 2026

The 4th European Green Aluminium Summit 2026 is Europe's premier annual gathering for the aluminium industry's transition toward climate neutrality. Taking place on November 18–19, 2026, in Frankfurt, Germany, the summit brings together policymakers, leading producers, technology innovators, and sustainability experts to exchange best practices, highlight emerging solutions, and explore collaborative strategies that strengthen Europe’s supply chain resilience and accelerate the development of a competitive, low-carbon aluminum industry.

As the EU continues its path toward climate neutrality by 2050, progressively strengthened targets — including the 2030 Fit-for-55 framework and the implementation of CBAM — are reshaping the landscape for energy-intensive industries. Aluminum, valued for its recyclability and lightweight applications, remains central to decarbonizing sectors such as mobility, packaging, and construction. At the same time, the industry faces mounting challenges from volatile energy markets, geopolitical tensions, and tightening sustainability requirements across Europe.

The summit addresses these challenges through four core themes: Green Aluminium Production, Energy Transition, Recycling & Circular Economy, and Policy & Compliance. Over two days, 20+ expert speakers will share insights through strategic keynotes, case studies, and panel discussions.

Key topics include CBAM compliance strategies, Elysis™ carbon-free smelting, renewable PPAs, scrap recycling innovations, digitalisation, and the evolving expectations of automotive and packaging buyers.

Participants can join in-person in Frankfurt for full access to all sessions and dedicated networking, or online via live broadcast.

As the industry accelerates toward net-zero, this summit offers the clarity, connections, and strategies needed to lead. The transition is happening now. Will you be part of it?
