Steel is one of the most ubiquitous materials in the built environment, it’s incredibly versatile, used for everything from reinforcement in concrete to wind turbine towers. But overall, do you think it’s helping or harming the energy transition? On the one hand, it’s the source of a large proportion of the world’s emissions, and on the other hand it’s a critical material for a lot of the technologies we’re going to need to transition away from fossil fuels. It’s a bit of a tradeoff currently, but emerging technologies are available to eliminate emissions from steel, which would make steel more of a clear climate helper. And in this video we’re going to talk about progress towards one of those, a hydrogen-based fossil-free steel making technology.
