Aluminum is a critical material for the energy transition. It is the second most-produced metal by mass after iron and demand for it has been growing globally at an average rate of 5.3% over the past decade [1].Aluminum''s abundance makes it available with a benignly rising cost to output cumulative supply curve which can accommodate continuing rise in demand [2].

Although aluminum production is very energy intensive process with high greenhouse gas emissions, some physical–chemical properties of aluminum are very attractive for energy storage and carrying. Among them there are zero self-discharge and high energy density. Aluminum can be stored for a long time and transported to any distance.
Aluminium is both an important input to a number of technologies critical to the energy transition and a major source of carbon emissions, responsible for around 3% of the world''s direct industrial emissions in 2021, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Alumina refining and aluminium smelting are responsible for more than 90% of aluminium
Aluminum is the most abundant, naturally occurring metal in the earth''s crust and has become a vital part of everyday modern life. This precious metal is used everywhere from power lines,
As a result of the unreliability of national energy production, many citizens have turned to more independent means of energy production: solar power and wood fuel. Solar power accounts for a rather small sector of independent energy production. Only 18% of households have solar panels (this figure does not specify the amount of solar panels per residence), while the majority of

Go to Top. Energy Sources. The energy supply options fro Zimbabwe have a mixture of hydroelectricity, coal and renewable sources. The grid is well developed with efforts after 1980 having extended supplies to rural business and government administrative areas.. Much of Zimbabwe''s electricity is produced at the Kariba Dam Hydroelectric Power Station (about 750
Aluminium is produced according with the Hall-Heroult process. During this complex electrolyte two-phase electrolysis, it is difficult to model the current distribution and to optimize the process.
To provide the correct feasibility study the work includes the analysis of aluminum production process: from ore to metal. During this analysis the material and energy balances are considered. Total efficiency of aluminum-based energy storage is evaluated. Aluminum based energy generation technologies are reviewed.
Aluminum-based energy storage can participate as a buffer practically in any electricity generating technology. Today, aluminum electrolyzers are powered mainly by large conventional units such as coal-fired (about 40%), hydro (about 50%) and nuclear (about 5%) power plants , , , .
The coming of aluminum-based energy storage technologies is expected in some portable applications and small-power eco-cars. Since energy generation based on aluminum is cleaner than that of fossil fuel, the use of aluminum is defensible within polluted areas, e.g. within megapolises.
Aluminum is examined as energy storage and carrier. To provide the correct feasibility study the work includes the analysis of aluminum production process: from ore to metal. During this analysis the material and energy balances are considered. Total efficiency of aluminum-based energy storage is evaluated.
Calorific value of aluminum is about 31 MJ/kg. Only this energy can be usefully utilized within aluminum-fueled power plant. So, it shows the efficiency limit. If 112.8 MJ are deposited, the maximum cycle efficiency of aluminum-based energy storage is as follows: 31 MJ 72.8 MJ = 43 %. This percentage represents the total-thermal efficiency.
In this field aluminum can play a role of strategic energy buffer. Due to zero self-discharge aluminum is a long term storageable and manoeuvrable fuel, which can be utilized on demand promptly. In future, if inert anodes are developed, aluminum production technology can be also integrated into distributed energy.
