• Forging a Sustainable Future: A Look at Steel Companies' ESG Initiatives

  In 2022, worldwide production of crude steel totaled 1,885.02 million metric tons (mmt), and demand for steel is anticipated to increase significantly to meet future requirements. However, the steel industry is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to its reliance on fossil fuels and energy-intensive production processes. Currently, the industry accounts for approximately 8% of the global final energy demand and 7% of the energy sector’s CO2 emissions. Hence, there is pressure on the industry to reduce its carbon footprint. Consequently, it has been exploring various strategies, such as using renewable energy sources, adopting more efficient production methods, and implementing carbon capture and storage technologies to mitigate the environmental impact.
