New Zealand Steel Goes Green | Auckland News

from Auckland News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

New Zealand Steel just launched a game-changing electric arc furnace at its Glenbrook plant, slashing expected CO2 emissions by nearly 50% and setting a bold target to ditch coal by January 2027. The move earned them a $10 million boost from the Green Investment Fund — and it’s just the start. This isn’t just about cutting emissions; it’s a major leap for the steel industry’s future, proving heavy industry can go green while staying strong. With $140 million in government backing, this project is a blueprint for decarbonizing manufacturing — and New Zealand Steel is leading the charge.
