Essar achieved record domestic sales at its Stanlow refinery in 2025, driven by an 8% increase in operational throughput and significant investments, including a $100 million turnaround as part of a $350 million improvement program. The upgrades included the installation of the UK's first hydrogen-ready furnace. Essar advocates for the inclusion of the UK refining sector in the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism to maintain competitiveness against high-carbon imports.
