greentec steel

With our research activities, technologies and innovations related to greentec steel, we are making a significant long-term contribution to achieving the climate goals. In a first step towards green steel production, we are planning to reduce our CO2 emissions by up to 30% by 2029 – that is almost 5% of Austria’s annual CO2 emissions. greentec steel is thus the largest climate protection program in Austria.

Smart scrap sorting for green steel

Smart scrap sorting for green steel

Due to the switch to green steel production, significantly more scrap will be required in the future, so the sufficient availability of scrap will play an important role. For this reason, we are already conducting research in various projects into how high-quality steel grades can be produced from old scrap in the future.

Steel cycle: How scrap is turned into green steel

Steel cycle: How scrap is turned into green steel

The conversion to “green” steel production means that significantly more scrap will be needed in the future. However, this increasing demand cannot be fully covered by new scrap (pre-consumer scrap). In future, it will therefore be necessary to make greater use of old scrap (post-consumer scrap), which has to be processed and sorted at great […]

greentec steel: building progress above and below ground

greentec steel: building progress above and below ground

At voestalpine, we are building bridges and tunnels as part of greentec steel, our program for the conversion to steel production with net zero CO2-emissions. The new 800 meter-long conveyor belt bridge that will also supply the electric arc furnace with raw materials from 2027 onwards was recently completed.
