Electrolytic aluminum is energy-intensive – is power supply not a problem in Henan?
Electrolysis operations at China Aluminium’s Henan branch have come to an end; what started as two of the most advanced pre-baked anode aluminum electrolyzers in the 1980s (with another one located at Fushun Aluminum Plant) has now been forced to shut down. It’s that the management wasn’t willing to make changes; they didn’t carry out technical upgrades when the conditions were favorable, so it remained at 80KA level, and eventually production came to a halt. The result of a lack of ambition.
