SSAB’s Post

In 2024, the steel industry continues to navigate a landscape shaped by technological advancements, sustainability imperatives, and geopolitical factors. Enhanced automation and digitisation streamline production processes, boosting efficiency and quality. However, the industry grapples with the challenge of reducing carbon emissions, prompting investments in cleaner production methods like hydrogen-based steelmaking. Additionally, trade tensions and supply chain disruptions influence market dynamics, necessitating agile strategies for adaptation and resilience. Overall, the steel sector remains pivotal to global infrastructure and manufacturing, evolving to meet evolving demands while striving for sustainability.

SSAB is taking the lead in reducing the steel industry’s carbon footprint, and SSAB ZeroTM is already on the market. In this webinar, we delve into facts and figures that show why SSAB’s fossil-free steel is unique in the marketplace and how you can reduce your company’s carbon footprint. Here are some of the questions that will be answered during this 50-minute webinar: The webinar will answer questions including the following: • What makes SSAB’s zero-emission steel unique? • What green steels are there on the market and how do they differ? • Why doesn’t SSAB use ecolabels for green steel? • How can SSAB contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of its customers? • What is SSAB ZeroTM and how is it produced? • How does SSAB ZeroTM complement SSAB’s fossil-free offering? • What are the carbon dioxide emissions of SSAB’s products and what kind of environmental declarations do they have?

Investors require more clarity from companies on their net zero transition plans. What should a credible transition plan in the steel sector look like? How can it be costed and how should its carbon be quantified? In this insight report we review the SSAB HYBRIT model, its benefits and challenges and wider implications for the steel sector. We assess the transition challenges relating to both hydrogen direct reduction and blast furnace CCUS routes, and we review the implications of utilising more scrap and the imposition of the EU ETS and Carbon Boarder Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
