Result description
The dawn of a green industrial revolution
We are dedicated to speeding up the decarbonization of the steel industry (responsible for approximately 8% of the global CO₂ emissions), with the support of our shareholders, who are leaders in the value chain.
How do we achieve this? By producing low CO₂ direct reduced iron (DRI / HBI) using on-site production of renewable and low-carbon hydrogen.
Implementation of innovative technologies
In terms of technologies and process, we will produce DRI/HBI through hydrogen reduction. The hydrogen required for this process will be produced on-site using close to 700MW electrolysers. The DRI/HBI can be utilized in different production processes, such electric arc furnaces or even blast furnaces, enabling the decarbonization of steel and its end-markets (transport, construction, renewable energies…).
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
- We are sharing our knowledge
At GravitHy, our mission is to meet the growing demand for eco-friendly iron and steel. We are fully committed to reducing emissions from the steel industry by producing and utilizing low-carbon and renewable hydrogen to manufacture decarbonized Direct Reduced Iron (DRI).
This DRI/HBI may then be used locally, nationally or traded globally as decarbonized Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI), to be used for producing decarbonized steel.
