The European steel industry welcomes the Commission proposal for the ‘Clean Steel - Low Carbon Steelmaking’ European Partnership
EUROFER, The European Steel Association, and ESTEP, the European Steel Technology Platform, welcome the proposal of the Commission for a co-programmed European Partnership on Clean Steel – Low Carbon Steelmaking.
The European steel community is fully committed to the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions and to helping to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement and the EU’s target of reducing domestic CO2 emissions by 80% to 95% by 2050 compared to 1990 levels. We believe that the partnership proposal represents an important step forward towards the demonstration of low-CO2 technologies in steelmaking and our future contribution to the meeting of the targets.
Energy is key to achieving the steel industry’s low-carbon goals.
The EUROFER | Engage newsletter will provide monthly updates from the association, consolidating all the news on our website.
Brussels, 09 July 2020 – With the Global Forum on Steel Excess Capacity (GFSEC) having been reactivated, the European Steel Association (EUROFER) has called for an intensification of its ongoing work. The GFSEC is a key forum to establish the transparency necessary to map global overcapacity – a pre-condition to facilitate capacity reductions globally.
