The test production was carried out in HYBRIT’s pilot plant in Luleå and shows that it is possible to reduce iron ore with fossil-free hydrogen, instead of removing the oxygen with coal and coke. This means that we can meet the climate goals in Sweden, Finland and contribute to reducing emissions throughout Europe.
