The SisAl Pilot Project partners gathered virtually to assess the status of the activities implemented so far and how to ensure they reach their challenging project outcomes. The main progress in the novel industrial process to produce silicon are focusing on enabling a shift from today’s carbothermic Submerged Arc Furnace (SAF) process to a far more environmentally and economically sustainable alternative.

In its final year, they are pointing on the life cycle assessment of the process and the project exploitation. The development of business models dealt with economic modeling, and exploitation activities, both commercial and non-commercial. Valorizing secondary raw materials is a key feature of the SisAl concept, and business cases are being developed for specific European locations (such as Norway, Iceland, Spain, and Greece) with favorable conditions regarding access to secondary raw materials.
