Lazio

A six-year European Commission-funded initiative aimed at pioneering 100% hydrogen-fueled steel production. The project includes designing and constructing an operational pilot plant, establishing a testing and qualification hub, and creating a training center for hydrogen-based decarbonization technologies.

Executive arm of the European Union, responsible for proposing legislation, enforcing EU laws, and approving or rejecting member state state‑aid schemes.

A process that reduces iron ore using hydrogen as a reducing agent instead of traditional carbon-based methods. The Hydra project will feature a 30-meter high DRI tower as a core component of its pilot plant.

A comprehensive approach to replacing carbon-based reducing agents with hydrogen throughout the steel production cycle, as demonstrated by the Hydra project.

Steel production furnace that melts scrap steel or DRI using electric arcs, producing steel without the need for blast furnaces or coke.
