Season 2 / Episode 12: Martin Pei, SSAB

Many consider the HyBrit project to be the original ore-based iron and steel-making decarbonisation project. One of the leaders behind that project is Martin Pei, the CTO of SSAB, based in Sweden, who also has steelmaking operations in Finland and the US. Here, we are lucky enough to hear how that process was developed, where it is now, and how it will fit in with the future SSAB. The story is critical in understanding how the European steel industry will inevitably have to fundamentally adapt. In addition, we learn how SSAB is already producing SSAB Zero in the US. This is the world’s first emission-free steel of its kind, which is made from recycled steel and produced with fossil-free electricity and biogas.
