Norsk Hydro ASA NHYKF

Company Overview

Norsk Hydro ASA is a Norway-based integrated aluminum and renewable energy company operating primarily in the aluminum, energy, and recycling industries. The company’s core activities span the entire aluminum value chain, from bauxite mining and alumina refining to primary aluminum production, rolling, extrusion, and recycling. Aluminum accounts for the majority of revenue, supported by Hydro’s internal renewable power generation and long-term energy assets.

The company serves industrial customers across transportation, construction, packaging, automotive, and energy infrastructure markets, with a strong emphasis on low-carbon and responsibly produced aluminum. Norsk Hydro is positioned as a global leader in sustainable aluminum production, leveraging access to renewable hydropower, vertically integrated operations, and advanced recycling capabilities. Founded in 1905 as Norsk Hydro-Elektrisk Kvælstofaktieselskab, the company initially focused on fertilizer production and hydropower, later evolving into a diversified industrial group before becoming a pure-play aluminum and renewable energy company following the demerger of its former oil and gas business in 2011.
