Press release: Global Arrangement: EU and U.S. to miss unique opportunity for settling trade dispute and advancing climate protection before COP28, warns EUROFER - 23 November 2023

Brussels, 28 November 2023 – Yesterday’s EU Trade Council meeting shows that the EU and the U.S are still far away from reaching an agreement to advance climate protection, fight trade distortions in the global industry and solve the EU-U.S. trade dispute by the end of 2023, as originally agreed by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and U.S. President Joe Biden in 2021. The lack of a Global Arrangement on Sustainable Steel and Aluminium is a missed opportunity for both ensuring fair trade and advancing on climate protection just before the start of COP28, warns the European Steel Association.

Press release: Further delaying and weakening EU sanctions against Russia risks to be self-defeating and a historic mistake, says EUROFER - 01 December 2023

Brussels, 01 December 2023 – Further delays in implementing EU sanctions against Russian steel semifinished products would have a perverse effect, ultimately fuelling Putin’s war machine against Ukraine. The EU Council should reject additional exemption requests from a few member states defending the lucrative business model of few steel rerollers. The trade dynamic that takes advantage of cheap steel imported from Russia while aiding the supply to its military and related downstream sectors must come to an end, states the European Steel Association.

Press release: Council’s recognition of net-zero steel technologies boosts expectations for green markets in Europe, says EUROFER - 07 December 2023

Brussels, 07 December 2023 – The inclusion of transformative industrial technologies for the decarbonisation of energy-intensive sectors, such as steel, in the list of net-zero technologies in the general approach adopted by the Council on the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA), sends a positive signal at a crucial time when governments are deliberating urgent measures to protect the climate at COP28 in Dubai. Parliament and Council should now seize the opportunity to reach an ambitious agreement to promote EU-made green products in public auctions of net-zero technologies and to drive Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (CCUS) in Europe. Promoting lead markets and CCUS are essential tools for sustaining the transition to low-carbon steelmaking, says the European Steel Association.

Critical Raw Materials Steel Scrap WEBSITE

Press release: Missed opportunities in securing EU scrap supply risk delaying industrial decarbonisation, warns EUROFER - 13 December 2023

Brussels, 13 December 2023 – The exclusion of ferrous scrap from the Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) and specific provisions in the Waste Shipment Regulation (WSR) recently agreed risk jeopardising sufficient supply and quality of this valuable secondary material, which is essential for the decarbonisation of the steel industry. Despite some progress made to improve recycling and export criteria, an important way forward to ensure green steel and resilient cleantech value chains made in Europe is to recognise ferrous scrap as secondary strategic raw material and include it in all relevant legislation, says the European Steel Association.

Press release: 2040 target: enabling conditions for unlocking investment in industrial transition cannot wait any longer, warns EUROFER - 06 February 2024

Brussels, 06 February 2024 – The 90% target recommended today by the European Commission demands an unprecedented transformation of EU society and industry in just 16 years. The steel industry is already playing its role but there is not yet a clear business case for the transition, and investments remain worryingly low. Rather than focusing on an abstract debate on target-setting, the EU needs a concrete problem-solving approach that delivers urgently an investment-friendly framework with affordable energy and an international playing field at its core, says the European Steel Association.
