Novelis Inc., a sustainable aluminum solutions provider, has successfully tested the use of hydrogen fuel to power a recycling furnace at its UK plant in Latchford, Warrington. The tests, conducted as part of a UK government decarbonization program, demonstrated that replacing natural gas with hydrogen in a melting furnace can reduce CO2e emissions by up to 90 percent. Collaborating with Progressive Energy, Novelis conducted a series of tests blending different percentages of hydrogen with natural gas to evaluate impact. This initiative is part of the UK government's push towards industry decarbonization through the switch to low carbon hydrogen. The company is also investing in expanding recycling capacity and setting ambitious sustainability targets to increase recycled content, reduce carbon emissions, and work towards carbon neutrality by 2050. Overall, Novelis aims to transform its Latchford site into a prototype for high-recycled content and decarbonized aluminum production, showcasing its commitment to sustainable practices and innovation in the industry.
