Integrated production of electrolytic aluminum to build an industry-leading cost advantage. 1) Extending upstream, a 2 million ton alumina project is arranged in Indonesia (of which 1 million tons are under construction and are expected to be put into operation in 2022). The company makes full use of Indonesia’s local high-quality bauxite, low-cost coal and human resources, and has a leading cost advantage. According to the disclosure of the company, the production cost of alumina project in Indonesia is 1 Shanghai Construction Group Co.Ltd(600170) 0 yuan / ton, which is about 25% lower than that in China. 2) At present, the company has 816000 tons of electrolytic aluminum and supporting capacity. The transportation radius between workshops in each link is small, the overall transportation cost is low, and the production cost of electrolytic aluminum is in the forefront of the industry cost curve. 3) The company plans another 100000 ton recycled aluminum project, which is expected to be put into operation in 2023, which is conducive to further cost reduction and efficiency increase.
