energy[edit]

Reaction energies in cal are fine, but it would be nice to have one in more usual large power use units, like kWh/tonne. (Which ton is used for measuring Al production?) Gah4 (talk) 21:38, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

this one says world average is 15kWh/kg. Gah4 (talk) 06:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Energy consumption[edit]

The article would benefit from some specific data. Can someone in the know add the range of electrical energy input in SI units: kWh of electricity/tonne of Al produced? Thanks 192.228.161.61 (talk) 11:31, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
