Oklahoma Inks Deal with UAE Company to Build $4B Aluminum Smelting Facility

  • Last month, Governor Kevin Stitt formalized an agreement with Emirates Global Aluminum for a $4 billion investment to establish a new aluminum smelting plant at the Tulsa Port of Inola.
  • The deal follows the hold of Enel North America's $1 billion solar panel facility and is not a replacement, while aligning with President Trump's agenda to onshore critical mineral supply chains.
  • Emirates Global Aluminum intends to develop a new aluminum manufacturing facility spanning over 350 acres at the Tulsa Port of Inola, which will be the largest of its type in the United States and will produce a variety of aluminum products, including primary forms, refined grades, and specialty alloys, while generating approximately 1,000 direct employment opportunities.
  • Governor Stitt described the occasion as historic for Oklahoma, highlighting the long-term benefits of the investment, while EGA CEO Abdulnasser Bin Kalban pointed out the sustained demand for premium American-produced aluminum.
  • The project is expected to almost double U.S. Aluminum production and reinforce Oklahoma's role as a key hub for critical minerals and manufacturing under a pro-business environment.
