Tata Steel Inks Deal With Ford To Supply Green Steel From IJmuiden Facility In Netherlands

In Europe, Tata Steel is working to switch to low-carbon technologies to manufacture steel in the UK and the Netherlands

Indian steel major Tata Steel has signed an agreement with US carmaker Ford to supply "zeremis green steel" from its Netherlands-based IJmuiden facility after the unit shifts to hydrogen-based steel making, reported the PTI. In Europe, Tata Steel is working to switch to low-carbon technologies to manufacture steel in the UK and the Netherlands, according to the report.

The company's both businesses, Tata Steel UK and Tata Steel Nederland, have been developing detailed plans for transition to low CO2 technologies in line with the company's goal to produce CO2-neutral steel by 2050 in Europe, company's CEO & MD T V Narendran and Executive Director and CFO Koushik Chatterjee earlier said.

"Tata Steel Nederland has signed a memorandum of understanding with Ford in Europe to supply the carmaker with Zeremis green steel once the IJmuiden steelworks switches to green hydrogen-based steelmaking," a statement said.

The agreement makes Ford the first customer committed to offtake the green steel that Tata Steel plans to produce via the hydrogen route, which is more sustainable and cleaner than the current steel-making method.

According to PTI, zeremis carbon lite steel is described as 100 per cent carbon neutral. "Our customers want to take care of our planet, and we are taking the necessary steps on this journey, providing the vehicles they need to make a positive contribution against climate change.

"Improvements within our supply chain are key, and with the use of carbon-neutral steel, we will take a major step towards lowering the CO2 footprint of our vehicles," said Sue Slaughter, Ford Purchasing Director, Supply Chain and Sustainability.

Hans van den Berg, chairman of the Board of Management of Tata Steel Nederland, said, "We are transitioning to become a producer of large quantities of high-quality green steel, we can supply our customers with a significant amount of high-quality low-CO2 steel. By aligning our sustainability ambitions with customers like Ford, we can create an early market for green steel..." More than half the weight of an average car consists of various types of steel, which vary in strength, weight, formability, magnetic properties and coating types.
