NALCO inks pact with EGA for DX+ Ultra aluminium smelting technology

07 Sep 2026 Evaluate

National Aluminium Company (NALCO) has signed Technology Licensing Agreement with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA). The agreement is for the deployment of EGA’s UAE-developed DX+ Ultra aluminium smelting technology for NALCO’s 0.5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) brownfield smelter expansion project at Anugola, Odisha. The agreement plays a key role in NALCO's ongoing expansion programme and its endeavour to strengthen its position as a globally competitive aluminium producer under the guidance and support of Ministry of Mines, Government of India.

Under the agreement, EGA will provide NALCO with the technology license, know-how, designs and technical information required for implementation of the DX+ Ultra technology, along with technical support during the various stages of project implementation. The DX+ Ultra technology is a high-amperage and efficient aluminium smelting technology, designed to support higher productivity and improved energy performance. Adoption of this technology is expected to enable NALCO to develop an efficient and competitive smelter with optimised capital and operating costs.

The proposed brownfield expansion will add around 0.5 MTPA of aluminium production capacity at Anugola. Together with NALCO's existing capacity, the expansion will enable the company to move towards an overall aluminium production capacity of about 1 million tonnes per annum.

National Aluminium Company has the largest integrated alumina-aluminium complex of Asia. Its integrated operations cover the entire aluminium production value chain from mining bauxite, refining alumina, smelting aluminium, captive power generation to a strong logistic network.
