The company has also planned to construct a new rolling mill for this project. The project involves a £450m investment. The first meeting for the investment plan of Lochaber Delivery Group is scheduled to take place today, February 3.

Rural Economy Minister Fergus Ewing will switch on newly-installed bio-fuel generating units within a hydro-power station. The units will make Lochaber Smelter “the greenest metal-producing facility in the UK”, the company claims.

Liberty British Aluminium has already presented its plan proposal to the Highland Council regarding the new investment project.

Liberty British Aluminium purchased the Lochaber Smelter last year from Rio Tinto. Liberty and Simec are the two companies engaged in Liberty British Aluminium. The smelter is one of the largest employers in Lochaber.
