Earlier this year, during the Ukraine Recovery Conference held in London, Primetals Technologies joined the Ukrainian government’s platform for the green recovery of the metals industry in Ukraine. The conference was inaugurated by UK prime minister, Rishi Sunak, and the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

Iron and steel is Ukraine’s second leading industry following agriculture, having contributed to 10% of the country’s GDP pre-war. The platform for recovering the steel industry in Ukraine brings together major players in the iron and steel sphere to support the reconstruction. The country’s geographical position will make it possible to feed European and global supply chains with low-carbon-emissions feedstock and steel products.

As a first step toward the agreement, Primetals Technologies will contribute to a feasibility study scheduled for completion in 2024.

“We are very pleased to support the Ukrainian government for the recovery of the Ukrainian steel industry,” said Dr. Alexander Fleischanderl, head of green steel and senior vice president at Primetals Technologies. “The steel plants in Ukraine have long played an important role on a European and a global level, and the iron and steel sector is central to Ukraine’s economy. With the projected investments targeting the entire value chain, Ukraine is poised to become a global hub for green ironmaking and steelmaking.”

It is estimated that $20–40 billion worth of investments will be needed to establish a green iron and steel value chain in Ukraine. These investments would encompass iron ore beneficiation and pelletizing, clean power and hydrogen production, green ironmaking and steelmaking facilities, and related infrastructure 金属展-冶金展-2024广州巨浪国际金属暨冶金工业展览会-巨浪展览-2024 China(Guangzhou)Int’l Metal &Metallurgy Exhibition 2024金属展，2024金属展会，2024金属展览会，2024广州金属展，2024广州金属展会，2024广东金属展，2024广东金属展会，2024中国金属展，2024中国金属展会，2024金属博览会，2024冶金展，2024冶金展会，2024冶金展览会，2024广州冶金展，2024广州冶金展会，2024广东冶金展，2024广东冶金展会，2024中国冶金展，2024中国冶金展会，2024冶金博览，2024钢铁展，2024钢铁展会，2024钢铁展览会，2024广州钢铁展，2024广州钢铁展会，2024广东钢铁展，2024广东钢铁展会，2024中国钢铁展，2024中国钢铁展会，2024钢铁博览会，2024金属冶金展，2024金属冶金展会，2024金属冶金展览会，2023广州金属冶金展，2024广州金属冶金展会，2024广东金属冶金展，2024广东金属冶金展会，2024中国金属冶金展，2024国金属冶金展会，2024金属冶金博览会-steel Industry Exhibition,steel expo, 2024 steel exhibition, 2024 steel expo, China steel exhibition, China steel expo, steel Industry event,steel event, 2024 steel event, China steel event,metal Industry Exhibition,metal expo, 2024 metal exhibition, 2024 metal expo, China metal exhibition, China metal expo, metal Industry event,metal event, 2024 metal event, China metal event,metallurgy Industry Exhibition,metallurgy expo, 2024 metallurgy exhibition, 2024 metallurgy expo, China metallurgy exhibition, China metallurgy expo, metallurgy Industry event,metallurgy event, 2024 metallurgy event, China metallurgy event
