Incorporating solar energy and substituting natural gas and coke with hydrogen gas offer promising pathways for producing low-carbon steel. Leading steel companies have actively pursued technological innovations to conserve energy and water while carbon emissions.
This strategy poses safety challenges due to the flammability of hydrogen gas and the need to store it at very high pressures. S2- Throughout the daytime, the energy demands of the steelmaking process are fulfilled by the solar power plant, while during non-production hours, supplementary energy is drawn from the grid.
The industry has been hard at work on improving the efficiency of its operations – producing a tonne of steel takes 40% less energy than it did in 1960 – and solar is set to play a key role in improving steel’s sustainability. Using solar power in its production allows EVRAZ to create more sustainable steel.
