[SMM Aluminum Express News] Norsk Hydro said its majority-owned Slovak joint venture, Slovalco, has secured an agreement with the Slovak government to partially restart primary aluminium production in Q4 2026 following a four-year shutdown. The restart will initially bring back 75,000 tpy of smelting capacity, supported by a new long-term power supply agreement and compensation for indirect carbon costs under the EU Emissions Trading System. Slovalco plans to invest €100 million to resume operations, while the restart of the remaining 100,000 tpy of capacity will depend on market conditions and additional power contracts beyond 2030.
