In 2006, Oleg Deripaska oversaw the creation of the Boguchanskoye Energy & Metals Complex (BEMO). The idea was to resume the construction of the Boguchanskaya Hydropower Plant, which was mothballed in 1994, and to build an aluminum smelter nearby, thus helping towards the development of the Siberian economy. By 2016, the first stage of production was launched at the Boguchansky Aluminum Smelter. In 2019, the official opening of the first series of BoAZ took place.
