    Hydro will supply Mercedes-Benz with low-carbon aluminum to reduce the carbon footprint of its vehicles, including the electric EQ model. Both parties have agreed to develop and implement a joint low-carbon technology roadmap for the period 2023-2030.



    Hydro and Mercedes-Benz have signed a cooperation agreement to jointly develop and implement a joint technology roadmap from 2023 to 2030, aiming to develop aluminum solutions that can be used in automobile manufacturing with a carbon dioxide footprint of less than 3.0kgCO2/ kgAl. Their ambition is to start producing and using near-zero carbon aluminum by the end of this partnership period.

    Hydro will provide Mercedes-Benz with the first batch of aluminum with a carbon footprint of less than 3.0kgCO2/kgAl in 2023, that is, Hydro’s low-carbon brand REDUXA3.0. The product will be introduced into a range of Mercedes-Benz models, including their newest electric car, the EQ.

    Hydro CEO Hilde Merete Aasheim said: "Mercedes-Benz is a leading company and the perfect partner for Hydro. The company's ambition to achieve carbon neutrality for all new passenger cars by 2039 is in line with Hydro's The ambition to deliver industrial-scale zero-carbon aluminum by 2030 is well aligned. Partnerships and collaborations along the value chain can accelerate the development of the technologies needed to reduce emissions, and we are delighted that Mercedes-Benz is joining us on our goal of zero-carbon aluminum .”
