Rio Tinto, second world largest mining company is seeking to improve its profit margin and return on capital by switching to lower cost renewable power.

Press metal already has favourable cost structure to protect its margins. With their latest acquisition in PT Kalimantan Alumina Nusantara, PMetal has effectively locked in 75% of its alumina requirement, ensuring a stable supply of raw materials, and potentially logistics savings.

Aluminum futures already rose past $2,560 per tonne in late September, its highest in over three months, and tracking the strong momentum for other base metals as fresh economic stimulus from China supported the demand outlook for key industrial metals.

Silicon Metal: The Backbone of Modern Technology and Sustainability
Chemical And Material | 28th October 2024

Silicon Metal: The Backbone of Modern Technology and Sustainability
Introduction: Top Silicon Metal Trends

Silicon metal, a critical industrial material, serves as a fundamental building block in a variety of applications, ranging from electronics to solar energy. Comprising more than 25% of the Earth’s crust, silicon is a versatile element that, when refined, becomes a key player in the production of semiconductors, alloys, and renewable energy technologies. With the growing demand for electronic devices and the shift towards sustainable energy sources, the Silicon Metal Market is witnessing significant transformations. We examine the most recent developments that are influencing the sector and spurring innovation here.

1. Surge in Demand for Renewable Energy Solutions

The global push for renewable energy sources has significantly boosted the demand for silicon metal, particularly in solar photovoltaic (PV) cells. Silicon is the primary material used in solar panels, and with governments and corporations investing heavily in clean energy initiatives, the market for silicon metal is set to expand. This trend is reinforced by the increasing adoption of solar energy to combat climate change and reduce carbon footprints.

2. Advancements in Semiconductor Technologies

The semiconductor industry relies on silicon metal and is growing rapidly due to the growth of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and 5G technology. Innovations in semiconductor design and manufacturing processes are driving the demand for high-quality silicon wafers. As electronic devices become more powerful and compact, the need for advanced silicon materials that can withstand higher temperatures and offer improved performance is paramount.

3. Rise of Sustainable Production Practices

As sustainability becomes a core focus for industries worldwide, the silicon metal sector is not lagging. Manufacturers are increasingly adopting eco-friendly practices in the extraction and production of silicon. This includes using renewable energy sources in smelting processes and developing methods to recycle silicon from end-of-life products. The goal is to reduce the carbon footprint associated with silicon production and align with global sustainability targets.

4. Growing Applications in Electric Vehicles (EVs)

The rise of electric vehicles is creating a new market for silicon metal. As EV manufacturers seek to improve battery efficiency and performance, silicon is emerging as a key material in battery technology. In contrast to conventional graphite anodes, silicon-based anodes are renowned for having a high energy density and capacity. This trend is leading to increased collaboration between silicon metal producers and battery manufacturers to develop innovative solutions that enhance the performance of EV batteries.

5. Expanding Use in Construction and Infrastructure

Silicon metal is becoming increasingly important in construction, enhancing the properties of materials like concrete and steel. Silica fume, a byproduct of silicon metal, boosts concrete's durability and strength, making it ideal for infrastructure projects. With rising urbanization and demand for sustainable materials, silicon metal's role in creating resilient, energy-efficient structures is set to grow.

Conclusion

Silicon metal stands at the forefront of several key trends that are shaping the future of technology, energy, and sustainability. From its vital role in renewable energy solutions and semiconductor technologies to its expanding applications in electric vehicles and construction, silicon metal is proving to be an essential material for modern society. As industries adapt to the demands of a changing world, the silicon metal market will continue to evolve, driving innovations that promote efficiency, sustainability, and performance. With the increasing focus on green practices and advanced technologies, the future of silicon metal looks promising, positioning it as a critical resource for the advancements of tomorrow.

Malaysia's Aluminum Stocks Rise After China Ends Export-Tax Rebate
November 17, 2024 at 09:40 pm EST

By Ying Xian Wong

Shares of Malaysian aluminum companies rose after China's finance ministry said it would end an export-tax rebate for the base metal.

Shares of Press Metal Aluminium--the Southeast Asian nation's biggest aluminum company--climbed 6.8% to 4.7 ringgit, equivalent to $1.05, in Monday morning trade. Shares of peer LB Aluminium rose 6.4%. The benchmark Kuala Lumpur Composite Index was 0.4% higher at 1598.82.

China said Friday that it will end its tax rebate policy on a wide range of products and commodities, including for aluminum and copper, starting Dec. 1.

The removal of the rebates is expected to raise the global cost of Chinese aluminum, potentially reducing export volumes in the near term, ING analysts Ewa Manthey and Inga Fechner said in a note.

The move could lead to a shift in trade dynamics, driving countries reliant on Chinese aluminum to seek alternatives amid limited global production capacity, the ING analysts said. "The global aluminum market is expected to return to deficit from 2026," they added.

China, the world's largest producer of aluminum, introduced export-tax rebates in 1985 to enhance global competitiveness for its products and attract global buyers, they said.
