Since then, the Ghana Integrated Aluminium Development Corporation (Giadec) has invested in new mines and is looking to partner with foreign and domestic companies to actualise a harmonised aluminium industry, including an alumina refinery.

Emission-reduction technologies are costly and, in many cases, still being developed. The obstacles Ghana has faced in its aluminium industry over the decades have included a lack of investments in new mines, lack of refinery, limited electricity for smelting, and a lack of investments to upgrade the existing Valco smelter.
We found that new uncertainties and challenges stand in the way of Ghana’s latest efforts to develop an integrated aluminium industry. These are linked to the unfolding global energy transition agenda and shifts towards “green” manufacturing. Aluminium is both a constraint to and an enabler of a net zero future.
GIADEC, in line with its Master Plan, will develop four mining concessions; this will involve the expansion of the Awaso mine which is already in operation and the building of three additional ones (2 in Nyinahin-Mpasaaso and 1 in Kyebi). Ghana currently does not have a bauxite – alumina refinery.
It has been more than 60 years since Ghana’s first post-independence leader Kwame Nkrumah first mooted the idea that Ghana should produce aluminium from the country’s ample supply of bauxite. Under the Volta River Project, Nkrumah’s vision was to construct a dam on Ghana’s Volta River to provide dedicated electricity to a newly built smelter.
The smelter was to be run by the Volta Aluminium Company (Valco) in the new industrial city of Tema. The smelter would be linked to a refinery to process Ghana’s bauxite, currently estimated at 900 million tonnes. Ghana has the second largest reserves in Africa after Guinea.
