ArcelorMittal Focused on Zero Emissions and Organic Growth
Written by Sandy Williams
After divesting most of its U.S. assets to Cleveland-Cliffs, ArcelorMittal is now focused on strategic growth, controlling costs and leading the industry on sustainability, the steelmaker claims.
The company is targeting net-zero emissions by 2050 and looks forward to commissioning its Smart Carbon steelmaking technologies in Ghent in 2022. ArcelorMittal achieved its first sales for certified green low-carbon steel in December and expects to produce 600,000 tons of green steel annually by 2022. The green steel is linked to a CO2 savings certificate that customers can use to report an equivalent reduction in their Scope 3 emissions.
