European Aluminium

Organization Overview

European Aluminium is the voice of the aluminium industry in Europe, representing the entire value chain from primary producers to recyclers. With a strong presence in Brussels, the organization works to promote sustainability, innovation, and competitiveness within the sector. European Aluminium is committed to supporting decarbonization and circular economy initiatives, with hydrogen seen as a key enabler for the transformation of hard-to-abate industries such as aluminium recycling.

Project Contribution

In the H2AL project, European Aluminium leads communication and dissemination efforts. The organization ensures that project results are effectively communicated across the aluminium value chain and beyond. Activities include organizing events, coordinating outreach strategies with partners like ULB and BER, and engaging key stakeholders from industry, academia, and government. Their work is crucial for aligning technological advances with industry needs and policy developments.
