Steel is getting a green makeover! 🌍💚 Clean steel investments are not just about cutting emissions—they're protecting jobs, revitalizing communities, and even slashing healthcare costs. It’s a win-win for workers and the planet. Time to embrace the future! ⚡️ #GreenSteel #Decarbonization
Check out the latest issue brief from SFOC, based on the 2026 Leaderboard. They documented a clear performance gap in adoption of #greensteel and steel supply chain decarbonization goals among East Asian automakers compared with U.S. and European automakers.

The new SteelWatch Corporate Scorecard is out, and none of the steelmakers assessed look good.
❌None score above 50/100
❌All show ongoing coal dependency
❌All score zero on green iron consumption
The gap between talk and action is huge. See more -> steelwatch.org/scorecard
#GreenSteel
POSCO, Hyundai Steel, Nippon Steel & HBIS are among the worst performers, all scoring below 22 out of 100.
They all remain structurally committed to coal-based production, while progress on renewables, reporting, and green iron is limited.
#GreenSteel #Climate
We’ll be the first to congratulate U. S. Steel for improving its score in future versions of our Corporate Scorecard, but for now it’s in the middle of an underperforming pack.

#GreenSteel #SteelDecarbonisation
That’s the central finding of the new SteelWatch Corporate Scorecard. None of the steelmakers we analysed is living up to their decarbonisation responsibilities, with no one scoring even 50 out of 100.

🇨🇳 NEW | Stronger #greensteel pathways in #China could deliver a 37% emissions cut from peak by 2035
They could also help the sector to recover ~CNY 220Bn in lost profits, shore up debt & maintain market credibility

🌱 Japan just made a $1.2 BILLION bet on green steel.
The government will guarantee JFE Holdings' debt for a next-gen electric arc furnace — the country's biggest push yet to slash CO₂ from steelmaking.

It is concerned with a lack of information on emissions from the planned modifications, which impact health and climate.
Gary Work’s blast furnace #14 relining, scheduled to start in May, needs to be carefully reconsidered.

Steelmakers should not be gambling on government support to extend the life of facilities that aren’t fit for the future. Pursuing smarter low-emissions pathways, such as green iron imports, is shaping up as the best path forward.

Germany adds €322M to Salzgitter’s #greensteel project, bringing total support to €1.3bn.
The funding secures SALCOS phase one and keeps the 2027 start-up on track, enabling the shift from coal to gas — and later #greenhydrogen

Is green steel about as good an option as green cheese? Professor and Frontier Senior Fellow Joseph Fournier thinks so. Apart from its economic impracticalities, the process involved would make us more dependent on China and Russia. #Steel #GreenSteel #Decarbonization
Nearly every major automaker is working to source #greensteel for their supply chains. But not all steel decarbonization solutions are legitimate.
