Posted on: Thursday, 16 February 2006, 18:00 CST
Alcoa Inc. said Thursday it will spend about $1.5 billion to build an aluminum smelter in Trinidad and Tobago.
The 341,000-ton per year facility, which will include an associated anode plant and cast house, will be built in the Cap-de-Ville area of southern Trinidad.
The facilities, to be owned 100 percent by Alcoa, would be powered by a self-contained power plant fueled by natural gas. The new smelter and related facilities are projected to cost about $1.5 billion.
