A compilation of the Monday Stats Post by Marlen Bertram, the IAI’s Director of Scenarios and Forecasts Since February 2021, the IAI started piloting a regular post with unique IAI statistics and insights. This data is compiled by IAI’s Director of Scenarios and Forecasts, Marlen Bertram. The Monday Stats Post ...
IAI models 1.5-degree decarbonisation scenario in a bid to drive greater emissions reductions This scenario will guide and inform what industry does – much is currently happening. The International Aluminium Institute (IAI) has modelled a 1.5 Degree Scenario to guide its member’s efforts to meet global climate goals. The modelling ...
This factsheet looks at key statistics in the areas of mining, refining, smelting, and recycling. It compares 2018 figures with the greenhouse gas budget assigned to the aluminium sector under B2DS by 2050. The International Aluminium Institute recently released the aluminium sector’s decarbonisation dataset in line with the International Energy ...
The aluminium industry identifies three areas to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The report, Aluminium Sector Greenhouse Gas Pathways to 2050, sets out three credible and realistic approaches to emissions reductions for the aluminium industry, in line with the International Energy Agency’s Beyond 2 Degree Scenario. The pathways are based on ...
Good Practice for Calculation of Primary Aluminium and Precursor Product Carbon Footprints. This methodology addresses the life cycle environmental impact category “climate change”. Please download using the blue button to the right. It specifies the principles, requirements and methodologies for quantifying and communicating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from primary aluminium ...
This dataset has been updated – for the latest greenhouse gas emissions data – please go to IAI Statistics here. This excel workbook includes International Aluminium Institute datasets for primary ingot – based on global reporters across the aluminium industry, including recycled ingot based on data from European Aluminium and ...
Based on 70 years of historical data from mining to product, recycling and trade for nine regions and globally. This new data reveals a record 20 million tonnes of post-consumer scrap intake in 2019. This avoids 300 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions as recycled metal reduces demand for primary ...
The IAI has undertaken this study to look at sector employment and economic contribution. This report aims to better understand the economic contribution of the aluminium industry by collating existing information relating to direct and indirect jobs globally. Employment numbers for upstream (mining, refining & smelting), downstream and indirect employment ...
Guidance to support smelters in conducting PFC measurements. This guidance provides practical information to support smelters in conducting PFC measurements for different objectives, including process improvement, benchmarking and GHG inventory reporting. The IAI’s PFC Working Group developed this guidance to reflect changes in the IPCC’s 2019 Refinement of the 2006 ...
