Green Steel Market to 2035 - Scope and Research Methodology
The global green steel market size was valued at USD 2.62 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 3.75 billion in 2024 to USD 129.08 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 55.6% during the forecast period. North America dominated the green steel market with a market share of 58.02% in 2023.
Essentially, the steel produced without using any fossil
fuel is called green steel. It is produced through a process that does not emit
any greenhouse gases and is carbon neutral. Steel production's main carbon
emission occurs during the reduction of iron ore in blast furnaces. In the
current scenario, coal is a primary energy source to fuel these furnaces. As
per the World Steel Association, the steel industry accounts for nearly 9% of
global CO2 emissions, and in China, it accounts for about 15% of national
emissions. Thus, it triggers the call for action and creates a necessity for
sustainable solutions.
