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 CO₂, but water vapor. The hydrogen serves as a reduction gas, which releases and binds the oxygen from the iron ore.
