EGA begins supplying aluminium made using solar energy and recycled metal to BMW – The National

Emirates Global Aluminium, the UAE’s largest industrial company outside the oil and gas sector, has begun supplying aluminium made using solar power and recycled metal to BMW.

The German car maker has been using the aluminium, called CelestiAL-R, to manufacture electric drivetrain housings, engine components and large-scale structural parts since the beginning of the year, EGA said on Thursday.

“BMW Group’s demand for the highest quality metal produced in the most responsible way has accelerated our progress in sustainability,” said EGA chief executive Abdulnasser bin Kalban.
