INTL AL CONF: Definition for low-carbon aluminium would be a good start, En+ chair says

摘要

Creating a definition for low-carbon aluminium would be an important step in helping to develop broader market engagement in sustainable production, according to the executive chairman of En+ Group. Lord Gregory Barker told Fastmarkets that creating a consensus on the definition was more important than arguing over the specifics, and that the important thing was to make a start. “There isn’t a single definition that commands industry-wide consensus yet, but that is only a matter of time, and it’s not difficult to get there,” he said during a keynote interview on the sustainability day of the Fastmarkets International Aluminium conference. “The great news is that we are talking about low-carbon aluminium, and it is front of mind, top of the agenda, first thing on everybody’s list,” he said.
