ThyssenKrupp Steel to present green steel plant proposals in August 

ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe plans to propose a green steel plant at Duisburg. The company aims to switch to direct reduction steelmaking to gradually replace the fossil fuel-based conventional blast furnace route at its site. 

At a Handelsblatt hydrogen conference, Bernhard Osburg, CEO of Thyssenkrupp Steel, said, “We will put the first proposals on the table in August.” The proposal involves a tender process for hydrogen production from renewable sources.
