Tata Steel Begins Electric Arc Furnace Transformation at Port Talbot Steelworks
GREEN STEEL
Tata Steel is transforming its Port Talbot steelworks to Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steelmaking, involving significant demolition and reconstruction to implement a low-carbon process. The £1.25 billion project, which will result in the loss of 2,800 traditional jobs, includes retraining programs and government support for affected families. While the initiative aims to reduce emissions and modernize UK steelmaking, concerns about reliance on imported scrap steel persist.
