BHP and Asian steelmakers join forces to study carbon capture hubs https://t.co/dufvJFjlqQ
BHP, the world's largest mining company, is spearheading a consortium of steelmakers and energy firms to investigate carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) opportunities across Asia. The consortium aims to explore large-scale carbon capture projects specifically targeting emissions from blast furnaces in the steel industry. A pre-feasibility study for these initiatives is expected to conclude in 2026. This collaboration represents a coordinated effort by global steel producers to address decarbonization challenges in hard-to-abate sectors. Meanwhile, in Australia, Nationals Senator Matt Canavan has criticized environmental initiatives by the country's largest aluminium producer, attributing them to the probable collapse of a major facility.
