Regulatory, cost and offtake pressures have combined to give the impression that it’s been a lost year. While these broader issues remain stubbornly difficult to overcome, the perception is inaccurate as there has been tangible progress – a fact that was underlined only last week by Panasonic opening its HX Renewble Energy Demonstration facility in Cardiff, south Wales.

Can recent momentum be maintained to make a meaningful dent in emissions? It is clear that companies investing in low-carbon production technologies and mastering new processes now will be better positioned to meet future demand for decarbonised steel products.

Masdar and EMSTEEL recently announced the production of the first green steel in the Middle East, in a pilot project in Abu Dhabi using green hydrogen, while thyssenkrupp Steel and Volkswagen Group signed an MoU for the supply of carbon dioxide (CO2) reduced steel from a direct reduction plant that is scheduled to open in 2027 and will be powered by hydrogen and green electricity. The plant will initially be ramped up using natural gas as a reducing agent and will gradually be converted to hydrogen. H2 Green… Read More »Hot topic: Green steel | Special features
