ABOUT IT

CBA's project, ESG Strategy 2030, has the objective of generating renewable energy in which it seeks to have 100% renewable sources of electricity in the company's production processes and to expand the installed capacity of renewable sources, in addition to hydroelectric plants. CBA's electricity generation is 100% renewable, predominantly hydroelectric, with two wind complexes and there are plans to further increase diversification with new sources. The renewable matrix supports the project with the following company certifications: Aluminium Stewardship Initiative (ASI) Performance and Chain of Custody and ISO 14001:2015 - Environmental Management System. The project's goal is to reduce emissions from cast products by 40% from the base year 2019 and set a path to carbon neutrality by 2050.
