GREEN AL: Market bullish for low-carbon aluminium differentials heading into 2022 negotiations

Spot differentials for low-carbon aluminium in Europe were stable during July, but some deals and offers for 2022 supply were reported well above current spot levels.

Fastmarkets assessed the aluminium low-carbon differential value-added product (VAP), Europe at $10-15 per tonne Friday August 6, unchanged from the previous assessment on July 2.
Offers for 2022 VAPs were reported between $20 and above $50 per tonne.
The long-term outlook remains bullish, with the European Union's carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) adding further value for low-carbon aluminium brands.
