T-2C1-TE-3 - Shift to electric arc furnaces in steel industries
Background¶
IPCC WG3 definition: .
TBD
Sustainability Category: Green¶
This transition element substantially contributes to climate change mitigation through significant greenhouse gas reductions, carbon sequestration, or enabling the transition to net-zero emissions. The transition element aligns with science-based pathways to limit global warming and should be prioritized for investment and expansion.
