UAE Pioneers Green Steel Production with Hydrogen
[tintuc]
The UAE's leading steel producer, EMSTEEL (formerly known as Emirates Steel), and renewable energy company Masdar have successfully completed their joint pilot project for green steel production. This groundbreaking achievement marks a significant step towards a more sustainable future for the steel industry.
The pilot project, the first of its kind in the MENA region, utilizes hydrogen to extract iron from iron ore. This innovative process has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from steelmaking by up to 95%, aligning with the UAE's ambitious goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.
By successfully producing green steel, EMSTEEL and Masdar are positioning the UAE as a global leader in hydrogen technology and green steel production. This milestone demonstrates the country's commitment to sustainable development and its potential to become a major player in the global energy transition.
