Da Zhong Ri Bao· 2025-07-15 06:44
绿色革命之下的铝产业正在经历一场从区域竞争到协同的变局。7月9日,在云南红河州泸西县,随着山东魏桥创业集团旗下云南宏合新型材料有限公司首 批电解槽启动,年产193万吨低碳铝项目首批生产线正式投产,这是全球首个电解铝AI智能系统生产线。 "该生产线投产标志着企业先进技术与云南绿色能源优势深度融合,将助力云南建设成为中国乃至全球铝产业技术高地。"山东魏桥创业集团有限公司董事 长张波表示。 云南宏合新型材料有限公司是云南绿色低碳示范产业园龙头企业,园区占地8377亩,由红河州人民政府、泸西县人民政府、山东魏桥创业集团有限公司共 建,通过承接魏桥集团大部分产能转移,云南加快打造"中国绿色铝谷",牵动山东铝产业从规模扩张向质量跃升的深层变革。 电解铝行业:从"电耗困局"到"绿电突围" 电解铝是耗电大户。中国有色金属工业协会党委副书记范顺科在5月29日举行的2025首届绿电铝论坛上表示,目前电解铝的碳排放约占有色金属行业的 2/3,约占全国的5%。我国电解铝行业碳排放水平仍然较高的核心原因在于电解铝用电结构仍以煤电为主。 在滨州,电解铝企业曾饱受"高载能"之困——每吨电解铝需耗电1.35万度,占生产成本的30%-40%。 ...
