Abstract

"- Climate Change Mitigation: By 2050, implementing Circular Economy strategies can save 64-81 Mt CO2-eq. emissions annually in the steel sector, compared to relying solely on decarbonisation strategies- Reduced Resource Dependency: These strategies can reduce the direct input of metal ore for the EU steel industry by 27% - Lower Energy Demand: They can significantly decrease the EU steel industry’s demand for fossil energy carriers by 28% and electricity by 36%- Higher Economic Security: The EU’s trade balance can be boosted by EUR 7 billion through reduced imports"
