Steel industry decarbonization
4 European H2020 organizations list this as part of their work — 4 as their primary capability.
Most active in this area
- PAUL WURTH SA
Luxembourg industrial engineering firm specializing in large-scale hydrogen production via solid oxide electrolysis for steel and heavy industry decarbonization.
“LoCO2Fe targeted low-CO2 steelmaking, and GrInHy2.0 deployed steam electrolysis directly in a steel plant context.”
PrimaryLU5 projects - K1-MET GMBH
Austrian metallurgical research centre specializing in decarbonization, digitalization, and circular economy solutions for steel and heavy industry.
“Present across all four H2020 projects — from hydrogen-based steelmaking (H2Future) to CO2 utilization and waste heat recovery (CORALIS)”
PrimaryAT4 projects - SSAB EMEA AB
Major Swedish steel producer providing industrial-scale demonstration sites for CO2 capture, gas-to-chemicals conversion, and steel-chemical sector symbiosis.
“STEPWISE, FReSMe, and INITIATE all target CO2 reduction and emissions transformation in iron and steel production.”
PrimarySE4 projects - SALZGITTER FLACHSTAHL GMBH
German flat steel producer using its own plant as a live testbed for green hydrogen via solid oxide electrolysis, targeting steel industry decarbonization.
“Both projects are framed around reducing the carbon footprint of steel manufacturing by substituting fossil-fuel-derived hydrogen with electrolysis-produced green hydrogen on-site.”
