By using a new, innovate manufacturing process, the production of steel at the supplier level is CO2 free. In the new process, the supplier uses hydrogen and electricity from 100% renewable energy sources instead of coking coal in steel production. Unlike the use of coking coal, this does not produce CO 2 , but water.
