Russian aluminum giant UC RUSAL plans to launch production at the Boguchansky and Taishet aluminum smelters in 2013, the press office of the Baikal economic forum said Thursday citing Artyom Volynets, CEO of En+ Group, which is a major shareholder of RUSAL.

After the launch of the plants, RUSAL’s total production capacity is expected to increase to 5.5 million tonnes of aluminum from the current 4.1 million tonnes.

The production capacity of the first stage of Taishet smelter in the Irkutsk Region is to amount to 375,000 tonnes, while the annual designed capacity amounts to 750,000 tonnes.

RUSAL has already invested $585 million into the construction of the plant and is to invest $1.187 billion more.

The production capacity of the first stage of Boguchansky smelter in the Krasnoyarsk Region is to amount to 147,000 tonnes, while the annual designed capacity amounts to 600,000 tonnes. RUSAL has already invested $296 million into construction of the plant, while total investments are to amount to $826 million.
