The green steel plant together with the integrated hydrogen facility will be among the largest industrial investments planned in Finland to date. Blastr aims to cut the CO₂ emissions of its end products by 95 per cent.

The partnership is aimed at designing and engineering an industrial-scale prototype plant with a new process for net-zero-emission ironmaking at the voestalpine site in Linz, Austria.

Swiss Steel Group owing to its expertise in recycling, electric arc furnace technology and the highest operating standards, has already been able to reduce the carbon footprint of its products to well below the industry average. But it strives to further reduce its environmental footprint until the Swiss Steel Group name stands for climate-neutral steel.

TRIWA made carbon footprint calculations on all its products and identified steel as the biggest polluter. In pursuit of solutions, TRIWA came across SSAB and the idea Time for Decarbonization was born.

Starting as early as 2027, up to 3.5 million tons of low-carbon steel will be produced annually in Saarland and emissions will be cut by 4.9 million tons.

Mubea is pursuing very ambitious sustainability goals and has committed to reducing its own emissions by at least 25 % through to 2025.

Customer-specific pilot-scale testing will be conducted in the Metso Outotec research facilities to demonstrate large-scale DRI smelting.

The new hydrogen plant in Hofors will make Ovako the first in the world to heat steel with fossil-free hydrogen prior to rolling.

Calix’s Zero Emissions Steel TechnologY (ZESTY) uses green hydrogen in a renewably powered reactor to produce green iron and ultimately, green steel.

SSAB is aiming to launch the world's first fossil-free steel at a commercial scale by around 2026. While the greener variant of the metal is the hottest topic on the steel market right now, there is still a lot of obscurity around it. To answer some of the key questions, the Swedish company recently hosted a factpacked webinar called, “What is fossil-free steel and when will production start?”.
