Report from Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit warns the UK is failing to match its European peers in its development of pioneering green steel projects

The UK is falling behind the rest of Europe when it comes to developing a new green steel sector, a report has warned. Hydrogen-based steel production, seen as the most likely low-carbon alternative to using polluting coking coal to produce the metal, is gearing up in many European countries – but plans have not got off the ground in the UK. A report from the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) said 23 hydrogen steel projects are either planned or under way across Europe, including pl...

An ECIU study said that, across Europe, 23 projects are planned or under way which use hydrogen to clean up steel production.

Image: Shutterstock The UK has launched its first Emissions Trading System (UK ETS) in a bid to curb emissions and reach its net zero target by 2050. The ETS scheme is a method of charging power plants for each tonne of carbon dioxide they emit. In the first auction of the scheme, the UK carbon price traded at £50 per tonne, making the cost of polluting in Britain higher than that in the EU. The introduction of the scheme aims to guarantee the consistency of emissions trading for UK businesse...
