Fundamentals of Green Steel

About the Course

The green steel sector is expected to grow significantly across the globe in the coming years. The United Kingdom, for example, recently set a target to produce forty gigawatts of offshore wind and so will require vast quantities of green steel for turbine foundations and cabling infrastructure. Five gigawatts of hydrogen is also projected by 2030, representing a 40-fold increase within nine years for that sector.

The journey to a renewable, circular and low-carbon economy (facilitated by electrons, hydrogen and other technologies) will be challenging, and the very top priority will be that it is implemented and delivered safely.

This green steel fundamentals and green steel process training program details how global leaders can assist. Developers and stakeholders require their people and supply chain to possess the necessary skills and competencies to deliver green steel projects safely, on time and with the highest quality standards.

Our green hydrogen and steel courses aim to enable companies and stakeholders to be aware of the fundamentals of the green steel-making process. What is green steel, why use green steel for production, and what does it mean for the future? What decisions and plans are likely to be made based on the real opportunities that are emerging? The course participants will be guided as to where early opportunities are most likely to lie, who is involved and how to engage.

Who Will Benefit

• Existing companies, particularly those who are already part of the steel supply chain and those looking to future-proof their capabilities

• Project developers seeking to decarbonise and source green infrastructure, financiers and the construction industry

• Construction, OEM’s and balance of plant organisations

• Particularly relevant to engineering companies, those involved in storage compression equipment and shipping as well as those seeking to enter the energy arena with its myriad opportunities in a market set for exponential growth
  
  The course will also benefit stakeholders from government, finance and consenting and those who wish to understand the realities of green steel production
