SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall are now taking a new, decisive leap forward in their work to make fossil-free steel for the global market. Industrialization of the technology being developed through HYBRIT will start in Gällivare, northern Sweden, where the world’s first production plant for fossil-free sponge iron – from feedstock to steel – is being planned.

The coal that is used today to make iron and steel will be replaced by hydrogen produced from water and fossil free electricity. Watch this video to learn more about how fossil free electricity and hydrogen are the keys to fossil free steel.    

Becoming fossil-free starts in the mine with LKAB’s know-how. Watch the full video to learn more about LKAB’s role in HYBRIT, the joint initiative and journey together with SSAB and Vattenfall, towards fossil-free steelmaking.

Innovation through the full value chain, from iron ore, via hydrogen produces with fossil-free electricity to, finished, fossil-free steel.

The biggest challenge for the steel industry in over 1000 years. SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall started HYBRIT, an initiative to produce fossil-free steel by using electricity and hydrogen. The goal is to virtually eliminate the carbon dioxide emissions. Learn about the HYBRIT-project and the journey towards fossil-free steel. Hear Hybrit and representatives for the owner …
