A message from CEO and General Manager, Jérôme Dozol
WELCOME TO THIS EDITION OF TAC NEWS.
It’s been just over nine months since I joined the team, and I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome to both the role and to Newcastle.
At the time of writing, TAC and the AWU have reached an agreement on the terms of TAC’s offer. We appreciate the cooperation of our employees and the Union throughout the negotiation process. This agreement provides excellent conditions for our operators while supporting a sustainable future for Tomago.
Our priorities remain centred on enhancing safety performance through our new Safety Transformation Plan, ensuring operational stability, and securing our next energy contract.
We remain committed to reducing our energy consumption, decarbonising our operations, and achieving 100% renewable energy by 2035. Our transition involves two key phases: managing the shift with coal until 2032 and fully transitioning to renewables beyond that.
Our search for renewable energy suppliers has confirmed viable options to support our long-term goals, though current pricing remains a challenge. We continue to work closely with the NSW and Federal Governments to strengthen Australia’s local aluminium industry and secure our future as a green metals manufacturer. We are confident that 2025 will bring greater clarity on TAC’s path forward, and we will keep you informed every step of the way.
Here’s to a happy, healthy, and successful 2025 for you and our business.
