Environment groups condemn Alcoa deal

Environment Victoria

Environmental groups have condemned a deal that locks in the use of brown coal to power the Alcoa aluminium smelter until 2036. According to Environment Victoria’s Mark Wakeham, Alcoa should be pursuing opportunities to incorporate renewable energy sources in its electricity supply if it is serious about providing jobs in regional Victoria.
