When the Great Patriotic war, the plant in Zaporozhye has been captured, the Volkhov was under threat, so the Soviet Industrialists, it was decided to build new factories in the rear — in Krasnoturinsk and Novokuznetsk. After the War the Soviet economy was experiencing a growing demand in aluminium. New factories began to open in the regions of Eastern Siberia. In the 1960s the world's largest factory for the production of aluminum was opened in Krasnoyarsk and Bratsk. In order to provide these enterprises with alumina — at that time mainly imported, was constructed plants in Achinsk and Nikolayev.
In 1985, opened the Sayanogorsk aluminum smelter in Khakassia. It may be noted that by the end of 80's the Soviet Union came in first place in the world for the production of aluminium. Country quite actively exported metal. Sayanogorsk aluminum plant largely contributed to the growth of this industry. But soon after its opening, the Soviet Union began the well-known difficulties, perestroika and then the disintegration of the country.
The Formation of the Corporation «Russian aluminium” was preceded by a period of insertion in the world market the other two major players in the market industry “the Siberian aluminium» and «Sibneft», which also had aluminium assets. In 2000, these corporations have combined their assets, resulting in an “Russian aluminium». The composition of this Corporation have included major Factories for the production of aluminium in Russia and Ukraine.
Later the company started to expand abroad. But in the Russian market the Corporation also actively developed. So, in 2006, opened Khakassky aluminum plant in Sayanogorsk also. It may be noted that by 2007, “Russian aluminium” have controlled about 80% of the industry in its segment in Russia.
As for the other subject of the transaction in which the Corporation was formed RUSAL — of SUAL, it may be noted that this Corporation was founded in 1996 in Kamensk-Uralsk. In the course of its development it is quite active in buying companies for the production of aluminium — but as a rule, relatively small. Also, this company acquired the Zaporozhye aluminum plant. In fact, by 2007, SUAL controlled that part of the market, which did not belong to “Russian aluminium”, that is, its share in the segment was approximately 20 %.
But, still somehow in 2007 both companies merged, with the consequence that was established JSC «RUSAL».
Quite large difficulties the Corporation had to overcome in a period of economic recession in Russia in 2008-2009. It is known that the firm was experiencing difficulty with repayment of loans. However, the Corporation managed to cope with the problems. In the period from October to December 2009, the company «RUSAL» signed a number of agreements with major banks — both Russian and foreign, about restructuring of debts worth about 16.8 billion U.S. dollars.
It will be Useful to consider the ownership structure of the Corporation, and how it has changed over time.

ONEXIM group, Mikhail prinadlezhashieProkhorov owned the third largest stake in the Corporation. Another major shareholder, JSC «RUSAL» was Glencore.

All of the assets of the Corporation were valued at about 21 billion U.S. dollars. It can be noted that the main investors in the business became the Bank and the Fund Libyan Investment Authority representing Libya. These corporations acquired, respectively, of 3.15 % and 1.43 % of the securities of the Russian aluminum giant. After the IPO has changed the proportion of key shareholders of the enterprise — they decreased in accordance with the size of the package of assets sold to investors.

The number of used schemes of production organization of the Corporation — tolling, in which the raw materials are imported from abroad, processed in factories «Russian aluminium”, and the finished product is then transported over the border.
Company RUSAL actively cooperates enough with other major corporations. For example, in conjunction with RAO «UES of Russia” she implemented the project on construction of Boguchanskaya HPP and aluminum smelter, with a capacity of 600 thousand tons in the Krasnoyarsk region. The Corporation initiated the construction of many large enterprises in the industry. Consider which of these are key to the company's activities.
The Factories can be classified into the following basic categories:
- enterprises producing aluminium,
- factories for the production of alumina;
- companies engaged in mining of bauxite;
- factories that produce the foil.
In each of the above plants, there are both Russian and foreign companies.
The First plant for the production of aluminium in the Soviet Union, as we noted above — the Volkhov, was founded in 1932 and is still in effect. Its power — the biggest, according to some information — about 24 tons, but nevertheless this is an important infrastructure projects of the company.
After the Volkhov, in 1939 was launched the Ural aluminium factory in Kamensk-Uralsk. He also still operates, but now mainly engaged in the production of alumina.
The company, which was built during the great Patriotic war — Theological and Novokuznetsk aluminum plants opened respectively in 1943 and 1944. They also work successfully so far. Bogoslovsky aluminium plant produces mainly alumina and is composed of a foundry site. The company produces the protectors of aluminum and its various alloys. The plant capacity is about 960 thousand tons of alumina per year. The Novokuznetsk factory continues to specialize in the production of aluminum.

Is this plant in Shelekhov.
Among the enterprises of RUSAL, which is expected to diversify — Volgograd aluminum plant. On it, in particular, it is planned to expand the production of baked anodes. Volgograd aluminum plant has the necessary infrastructure for the production of steel. Its casting capacity is about 60 thousand tons per year.
Overseas aluminum smelters, RUSAL is in the Swedish city of Sundsvall and in the Nigerian ikot Abasi.
If we talk about aluminous plant RUSAL, the Russian largest enterprises of the relevant type are, as wenoted above, Theological and Ural aluminium factories and plants in Achinsk and Boksitogorsk.
Overseas enterprises of RUSAL's alumina output are located in the Ukrainian Nikolayev, Guinea Fria, Australian Gladstone, Irish Agonise, Italian Portovesme and Jamaican cities Kirklin and Mandeville.

The Release foil is carried out by Russian companies RUSAL, which are located in Sayanogorsk, Dmitrov, Mikhaylovsk. There is a large plant for the production of foil — the second power of all that belongs to “Russian aluminium" in the Armenian capital, Yerevan.
It Can be noted that the assets of the Corporation consists of enterprises which produce not only the actual aluminium, but also, in particular, the alloy of the foil. The Corporation owns the factories, forming a complete industrial chain — ranging from mining mills and finishing plants for the production of rolled products. This feature of the organisation of production allows the company to achieve the highest quality products. Russian aluminium in the world is valued largely for its high quality.
The Key production facilities of the company are located in Siberia, which gives, on the one hand, the ability of the firm to access natural resources in the region, on the other — brings it infrastructure to one of the largest consumers of aluminium, China.

According to experts, RUSAL tries to optimize its production to meet changing demand on the world market. The emphasis is on the manufacture of products with high value added. RUSAL is constructing a high efficiency of production capacity in Eastern Siberia, which will give the company the opportunity to supply customers with metal when the demand for it will increase.
RUSAL owns huge reserves of raw materials, has its own infrastructure for implementation of scientific and technical developments that can help optimize production and reduce its cost. Another important task RUSAL — to form a power base, which will allow you to increase the level of autonomy of production at the expense of making their own electricity. In this direction the Corporation has partnered with the company «RusHydro” in the framework of the project of construction of Boguchanskaya HPP.
