Underlying EBIT
Underlying EBIT declined to NOK 1,158 million compared with NOK 5,982 million in 2011, heavily impacted by low aluminium and alumina prices. Strong focus on reducing cost and improving operations generated substantial savings partly offsetting the negative market effects.
Investments
During 2012, Hydro continued to focus on maintaining a solid financial position and capital discipline. Investments in the year were mainly related to maintenance activities to safeguard our production assets.
Number of employees
The decrease in the number of employees in 2012 followed closures and divestments as well as improvment programs in all business areas. This included closure of the Kurri Kurri plant in Australia with 550 employees.
Greenhouse gas emissions
The greenhouse gas emissions from Hydro's current consolidated activities decreased by 2 percent in 2012, compared with 2011. The total emissions from our ownership equity - including indirect emissions from electricity generation - decreased by 11 percent.
