Project Type: Electrification
Saarstahl Green Steel Dillinger
September 25, 2024The new production route will include an electric arc furnace (EAF) at the Völklingen plant and an EAF and direct reduced iron (DRI) plant for the production of sponge iron at the Dillinger plant, in addition to the established blast furnace route. The capacity of the plants will be about 3.5 million tons of crude […]
Liberty Ostrava GREENSTEEL
September 25, 2024LIBERTY signed a contract with Danieli, a leading global manufacturer of plant and machinery, for the delivery of two state-of-the-art hybrid electric arc furnaces at the centre of Ostrava’s GREENSTEEL transformation plan. The new furnaces, the first of their kind in Europe, will have a combined capacity of 3.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) and […]
Liberty Galati GREENSTEEL
September 25, 2024LIBERTY Steel Group aims to invest up to €1 billion over the next seven years in the LIBERTY Galati GREENSTEEL transformation plan. The key element of the project is installation of two electric arc furnaces, a DRI plant and an integrated MI.DA minimill. The new furnaces are expected to reduce CO2 emissions per tonne of […]
Linz Greentec Steel
September 25, 2024greentec steel is the Group’s ambitious plan for green steel production: in the first step of this phased approach, one electric arc furnace (EAF) powered by green electricity will be built at each of the sites in Linz and Donawitz. Starting in 2027, the two electric arc furnaces will enable voestalpine to produce around 2.5 […]
Heracless
September 25, 2024The Heracless project is the first part of a total transition towards green steel, where coal will be something of the past. In the first phase of the project Tata steel will replace Blast Furnace 7 and Coke and Gas Plant 2 with new installations that operate on hydrogen, green energy, and natural gas. N/A […]
Duisburg tkH2Steel
September 25, 2024Thyssenkrupp, which is Germany’s largest steelmaker, plans to complete construction of its new direct-reduced iron (DRI) facilities at the plant — which will use clean hydrogen to extract iron from ore— by the end of 2026, with the capacity to produce 2.5 million tonnes of DRI annually.

Hamburg H2
September 25, 2024Arcelor Mittal’s €110 million Hamburg H2 project, which has recieved €55 million of funding support from the German government, is designed to test the ability to replace the use of natural gas with hydrogen to reduce iron ore and form DRI on an industrial scale, as well as then testing how that carbon-free DRI reacts […]
SALCOS
September 25, 2024SALCOS plans to use hydrogen for climate-neutral steel production. Their climate-neutral steel production will take place in three expansion stages over the long term. These contain clearly defined targets for the coming years. By gradually replacing the blast furnaces currently in use with direct reduction plants and electric arc furnaces, they will already be in […]
ArcelorMittal Gijón
September 25, 2024In July 2021, ArcelorMittal took a major step towards accelerating our progress to carbon-neutrality in Spain by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with the Spanish government which will see a €1 billion investment in their plant in Gijón and will reduce CO2 emissions by 4.8 million tonnes within the next five years. At the heart […]
