Green Steel Market Insights, 2025:
Green Steel – Key Drivers and Opportunities
Green steel, which is produced with lower carbon emissions than traditional steel-making processes, is gaining significant attention due to its role in reducing the industrial carbon footprint. Traditional steel production is responsible for around 7-9% of global CO2 emissions, mainly due to the use of coal in blast furnaces. Green steel aims to use hydrogen-based direct reduction methods and electric arc furnaces powered by renewable energy to cut down on emissions. The growing demand for sustainable manufacturing and carbon-neutral production processes is driving investments in green steel technologies. Governments worldwide are setting net-zero carbon targets, which are pushing industries like construction, automotive, and infrastructure to adopt green alternatives. Additionally, increasing consumer demand for eco-friendly products and green certifications is pushing manufacturers to produce steel with a reduced environmental impact.
Opportunities in the green steel market are significant, especially as companies in heavy industries look to align with sustainability goals and comply with evolving regulations on carbon emissions. As the demand for sustainable infrastructure and electric vehicles rises, green steel is set to play a pivotal role in the supply chain. The development of green hydrogen and electrolysis technologies offers a promising path for scaling green steel production, which will open up growth opportunities for steel manufacturers and clean energy providers. Governments and industries are also investing heavily in carbon capture technologies, which will help reduce the emissions from the steel sector. As the price of renewable energy continues to fall and electric arc furnace technology advances, green steel is expected to become more commercially viable, resulting in increased adoption across industries such as automotive, construction, and renewable energy infrastructure.
