Since its discovery in the early 20th century, stainless steel has revolutionized industry after industry. Now, as attention turns toward making metal more sustainable, its impact is far from over. The same pursuits and innovations that led to stainless steel are driving modern alloys toward a greener future.
In an exclusive interview with Green Steel World, Mr. Harsh Choudhry delves into how sentra.world is leveraging advanced technologies to drive sustainability in the steel industry.

David Busstra, Commercial Manager Circularity, at Tata Steel Nederland, explores sustainable trends in steel production, highlighting electric arc furnaces (EAFs) and direct reduced iron (DRI) processes. These technologies lower emissions, making them key to decarbonizing steel, especially in Europe. Tata Steel’s "Zeremis Recycled" product exemplifies this shift, targeting recycled content while reducing emissions. The role of scrap steel is crucial for circularity, reinforced by EU regulations like the Waste Shipment Regulation, which prioritizes recycling within the EU to retain alloying elements and reduce environmental impact.
In an era marked by scepticism over the feasibility of the green transition, any sign of progress offers a much-needed sense of hope. While many grapple with finding the right solutions, companies like Tenova are not just believers in the shift to sustainability—they are at the forefront of driving this transformation for themselves and their clients. We had the privilege of speaking with Mr. Roberto Pancaldi, CEO of Tenova, who provided insightful perspectives on how the company is reshaping the mining and metals industries to foster a more sustainable future.

In an exclusive interview with Green Steel World, Mr. Juha Erkkilä, VP – Market Strategy & Development at Outokumpu, offered valuable insights into a recent study commissioned by the company, exploring the future of steel in the context of the green transition.
With the narrowing window to limit global temperature rises to 1.5°C in line with the Paris Agreement, we must do all we can to achieve a net zero steel industry by 2050. We will only achieve this with steel users like our members signalling demand for and procuring net zero steel. But steel users need to know what they are buying to make effective procurement decisions, drive the transition, and measure real progress in tackling their scope 3 emissions.
That is why unlocking transparent, reliable, and comparable emissions data for steel has become a critical area of action for our SteelZero initiative. With this in place, businesses can understand and take steps to reduce the environmental impacts of the steel they use. But we need steelmakers to work with us to achieve compatible data sharing systems which will drive common understanding and expectations for data transparency along supply chains. This way, we can drive the industry’s net zero transition together.
The steel industry is at a pivotal crossroads in the quest for a sustainable future. As a key material in modern society, steel is crucial for infrastructure, transportation, and daily life, but traditional production methods significantly contribute to global CO2 emissions.
In this enlightening conversation, we delve into the strategies and innovations at Tata Steel Nederland with Mr. Sander Heinhuis, Director Marketing. Mr. Heinhuis provides a comprehensive overview of their pioneering approaches in sustainable steelmaking, the implementation of advanced data-driven processes, and the collaborative efforts necessary to achieve significant reductions in carbon emissions. Through initiatives like Zeremis and the development of cutting-edge technologies, Tata Steel Nederland is not only committed to decarbonizing its own operations but also aiding its customers and partners in reducing their carbon footprints.
In an exclusive interview with Green Steel World's Lucija Kozina, Mr. Fabio Passaro, Senior Transition Policy Analyst at the Climate Bonds Initiative, discussed the findings of a recent report he co-authored titled "The role of policymakers in mobilising private finance to ensure a credible and just transition in steel and cement." This insightful report, created at the request of the G20 Brazilian Presidency, was a key input for the Sustainable Finance Working Group (G20 SFWG) July meetings and informed their high-level discussions on sustainable finance.
