Japanese steel major Nippon Steel is aiming to hit its 2050 goal of carbon neutrality by focusing on hydrogen-based direct reduced iron (DRI) to make a breakthrough in green steel production, the company said on Friday May 30.

The European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism will be implemented in seven months’ time but the region’s steel industry was still not fully prepared for the gradual changes the system will involve, Fastmarkets heard on Thursday May 8 at the Made in Steel trade fair in Milan, Italy.

The global steel industry’s move to decarbonize and China’s penchant for lower-grade ores in recent years have uncovered challenges for high-grade iron ore to live out its value in both the blast furnace-based steelmaking route and the direct-reduction iron process, delegates told Fastmarkets during the Singapore International Ferrous Week (SIFW), which takes place from May 26-30.

Discover how President Trump’s tariffs impact the US fluff pulp export market, specifically targeting the EU and China.

The global iron ore market, a pivotal component of the steelmaking industry, has historically been driven by simple supply and demand dynamics. However, steel trade tariffs, trade wars and a growing trend toward resource nationalism are reshaping this once-basic industrial staple. These forces, alongside rising environmental regulations and shifting trade patterns, are profoundly influencing iron ore pricing, production and consumption trends. 

We provide an overview of how projects developed under Sustainable Agriculture carbon protocols are contributing to climate action on a global scale and what challenges they face.
