What is Clean Energy?

Clean Energy refers to energy derived from renewable, zero-emissions sources such as wind, solar, and hydro power. This type of energy minimizes environmental impact, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and supports a sustainable future.

Clean Energy at Celsa Steel UK

How Clean Energy Works

Celsa Steel UK purchases Renewable Electricity Guarantees of Origin (REGO) certificates to ensure that the electricity we consume is matched with renewable energy production. These certificates are linked to the amount of electricity consumed during our steel production process, including both the melt shop and the rolling mill operations.

Process Overview

1

Purchase of REGO Certificates

Specific to the MWh consumed during production.

2

Allocation

Certificates are tied to the tonnes of steel delivered to each project.

3

Validity

Certificates are valid from 1st April to 31st March of the following year.

4

Verification

The process is annually reviewed and independently verified by Bureau Veritas.

Essential Information

CO2 emissions by 2030.

 · Net positive impact by 2050, encompassing carbon neutrality, zero waste, and zero accidents.

Innovations and Investments

Hydrogen Projects
Initiatives like HyInHeat and TWINGHY aim to use green hydrogen in high-temperature heating processes.

Circularity Projects
Developing technologies to reuse by-products from steel production and increase transparency along the value chain.

Scope 1

Reducing natural gas consumption through oxyfuel combustion and future hydrogen use.

Scope 2

Enhancing energy efficiency and increasing the use of renewable electricity.

Scope 3

Sustainable procurement practices to lower embodied carbon in our supply chain.

At Celsa Steel UK, we are committed to making steel production more sustainable through our Clean Energy initiative and the broader Celsa Circular Steel Programme. By embracing renewable energy and innovative technologies, we aim to lead the industry towards a more sustainable future.
