ALVANCE British Aluminium is the last remaining aluminium smelter in the UK and is powered by its own hydropower plant. Based in Lochaber in the Scottish Highlands, its hydropower operation makes the site one of the greenest metal production plants in the UK. Taking advantage of the exponential growth in the use of aluminium in a host of consumer goods and industries – from packaging all the way to vehicles and transportation and other Engineered products – the Alliance is seeking to further integrate its ownership through the supply chain in the next few years to drive synergies and profitability.
