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.
