Germany steelmaker Salzgitter’s subsidiary llsenburger Grobblech and Norway-based steel distributor Norsk Stal have signed a supply agreement for supply of low-carbon heavy plates to Norsk Stal. The plates with a footprint of 0.65 tonne of carbon per tonne will be produced by the electric arc furnace route using 90% recycled scrap.Both companies have a leading position in reducing CO2 and offer the possibility to provide steel with low CO2e emissions for the industry in Scandinavia. Norsk Stål is a Norwegian company with nationwide production and sales activities in the steel and metals sector. They market and sell products and related services to various clients in the construction, energy, marine and engineering sectors.Made from EAF and scrap, these low CO2e emissions plates are the first steps towards green steel. This is followed by low-CO2 production using the hydrogen-based direct reduction process with the aim of massively reducing CO2 emissions in steel production. Salzgitter AG intends to gradually convert steel production to a hydrogen-based route as part of its SALCOS program.
