| By Mary Bailey

Fluor Corp. (Irving, Tex.) announced  that H2 Green Steel has selected Fluor to provide engineering, procurement and construction management services at the world’s first renewable hydrogen-based integrated ‘green steel’ mill in Boden, Sweden.

Fluor’s scope includes a melt shop, casting, rolling and finishing facilities for the project’s steelmaking plant. The H2 Green Steel site will produce five million tonnes of steel annually by 2030, with up to 95% less CO2 emissions compared to steel produced using traditional blast furnace technology.

“The execution of the H2 Green Steel project will build on Fluor’s long-term presence in the steel industry, our expertise in novel, low-emissions steelmaking technologies and our strong presence in Europe,” said Harish Jammula, President of Fluor’s Mining & Metals business line. “We are excited to be part of this important project and to support H2 Green Steel on their journey to sustainable steelmaking.”

Construction of the mill has already begun.
