Decarbonization of the steel sector is currently receiving significant attention in many countries, mostly focusing on the direct reduction of iron using hydrogen. However, unless green hydrogen from renewable energy sources becomes available in sufficient quantities and at an economical cost, the overall...
Steel production is one of the sectors that has a great potential for replacement of fossil fuels with green hydrogen. With the fast-developing technological scenario in respect of renewable energy and electrolysers for the production of hydrogen, it is expected that green-hydrogen based steel m...
Hydrogen-based reduction of iron ores is the key technology for future sustainable ironmaking, to mitigate the CO2 burden from the steel industry, accounting for ~7–8% of all global emissions. However, using hydrogen as a reductant prompts concerns abou
On Monday evening in Bochum, the CDU/CSU's candidate for Chancellor, Friedrich Merz, had questioned the plans for a rapid restructuring of the industry. "I don't think that a quick switch to hydrogen will be successful. Where would the hydrogen come from?" H...
Green hydrogen production Electrolyzer for green hydrogen production in detail Decarbonizing through green hydrogen Green hydrogen (H2) is a versatile energy carrier that can be applied to decarbonize a wide range of sectors. It can be used directly or in the form of its derivatives like e...
Green Steel: Decarbonising with Hydrogen-Fueled Production As the fight against climate change ramps up worldwide, the need for industries and economies to respond is immediate. Of course, different sectors contribute different amounts of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and face different paths to...

The total opportunity will amount to USD 15-20 billion in revenues by 2040, the majority (USD 10-12 bn) to serve the domestic market, especially trucking, steel production and other energy-intensive industries. Another USD 4-6 bn could come from exports of g...
we will be able to use the first hydrogen in our processes. With the planned conversion of the production technology in the coming years, we are resolutely driving forward the transformation together with our partners in order to make climate-neutral steel production possible. The political and ec...
Overall, steel production is calculated to beresponsible for 7-9 per centof the world’s annual CO₂ emissions, according to the World Steel Association. Using hydrogen instead of coal in the process, however, produces water vapour rather than carbon dioxide. ...
