Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) has reported record sales of low-carbon aluminium products for 2025.
According to the report, sales of low-carbon aluminium products were up 70% to 196 thousand tonnes.
EGA sold 109 thousand tonnes of CelestiAL solar aluminium (including 36 thousand tonnes of CelestiAL-R with recycled content), up from 84 thousand tonnes in 2024.
During 2025, EGA sold its first ever MinimAL low carbon aluminium made with nuclear power, whilst RevivAL recycled aluminium sales increased to 86 thousand tonnes, up from 31 thousand tonnes in 2024.
The figures were released in EGA’s financial performance report for 2025.
EGA delivered underlying Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (underlying EBITDA) of AED 9.28 billion ($2.53 billion), compared to AED 8.69 billion ($2.37 billion) in 2024.
This was driven by higher average realised aluminium prices, ongoing improvement work, and higher sales.
Additionally, EGA’s cast metal production rose to the highest-ever at 2.84 million tonnes.
EGA sold a record 2.83 million tonnes of cast metal to over 400 customers in more than 50 countries, up from 2.77 million tonnes in 2024.
The Al Taweelah alumina refinery produced 2.40 million tonnes of alumina in 2025, slightly down from 2.54 million tonnes in 2024.
Despite this, the refinery still met 46% of EGA’s alumina needs.
Abdulnasser Bin Kalban, Chief Executive Officer of Emirates Global Aluminium, said: “We delivered a strong financial performance in 2025, driven by record sales, favourable aluminium prices, and disciplined cost control — demonstrating the strength and resilience of our business.
“At the same time, we made significant strategic progress to secure our future growth. We advanced plans for a new smelter in the United States and successfully piloted our next-generation smelting technology, which will underpin our long-term competitiveness.
“We also expanded our recycling footprint, with new capacity in the United States and growth projects in the UAE and Europe. These milestones position us to lead the industry’s next phase of growth and create sustainable long-term value.”
In the UAE, EGA is nearing completion of the country’s largest aluminium recycling plant in Al Taweelah.
The plant will have a production capacity of 185 thousand tonnes of low-carbon, high-quality billets and T Bars per year.
EGA also announced the first charging with scrap of the melting furnace at the Al Taweelah recycling plant, marking a major construction milestone.
First production from the plant is expected by the end of Q1 2026.
EGA’s initiative with TAQA, DUBAL Holding and EWEC to decarbonise aluminium production in Abu Dhabi will enable EGA to scale up production of CelestiAL solar aluminium and MinimAL low-carbon aluminium.
As a part of the initiative, TAQA and DUBAL Holding are acquiring EGA’s Al Taweelah power and water assets for AED 7.0 billion ($1.9 billion). EGA signed Abu Dhabi’s largest-ever electricity supply agreements with EWEC and TAQA Distribution, which will make EGA the largest single electricity customer on the Abu Dhabi grid.
The total greenhouse gas emissions reduced by the initiative is expected to be 3.5 million tonnes annually by 2035, more than 3% of Abu Dhabi’s total current emissions.
