Aluminum consumption in Russia will increase in next year

For 2010 the company expects aluminum consumption in Russia and CIS to boost generally to 51% to 800 thousand tons compared to 531 thousand tons in 2009. Rusal forecasts cumulative annual growth of demand for aluminum in Russia from 2011 to 2015 at the level of 8%.

Rusal forecasts that aluminum prices will remain at the same level $2300 per ton till the end of 2010 due to high demand and also in account of going on weakening of US dollar exchange ratio, which stimulates investors to prefer commodities markets.
