Brazil’s Vale Partners with H2 Green Steel to Connect Hydrogen with Steel Production

In the quest for sustainability, Vale has set its sights on pioneering projects related to green hydrogen—a clean energy source with the potential to revolutionize various industries. This endeavor aligns with Vale’s commitment to reducing emissions by 33% by 2030 and achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Vale’s ambitious green hydrogen venture comes to life through a strategic partnership with Swedish startup H2 Green Steel. Together, they are exploring the feasibility of establishing green industrial hubs in Brazil and North America. These hubs are envisioned as centers of sustainable steel production, driven by low-carbon energy sources.

The core of this transformation involves producing low-carbon steel value chain products, including green hydrogen and hot briquetted iron (HBI). Vale will contribute its expertise in producing iron ore briquettes, while renewable electricity will power the hydrogen production process. The result is a greener, more sustainable approach to steel manufacturing.

Vale’s CEO, Eduardo Bartolomeo, emphasized the importance of this partnership, highlighting its role in driving Brazil’s new industrialization rooted in low-carbon practices. As regional development anchors, these initiatives are poised to reshape the Brazilian industrial landscape.

Brazil’s unique advantages make it an ideal hub for low-carbon steel products. High-quality iron ore, abundant renewable energy resources, and government support for decarbonization projects create a fertile environment for green hydrogen production. The domestic market, including segments like fertilizers, aviation, and steel, holds immense promise.

Vale’s journey towards sustainability extends beyond green hydrogen. Initiatives like the Sol do Cerrado project, the replacement of diesel with cleaner fuels for transportation, and plans to transition to green hydrogen and ammonia in railways showcase the company’s commitment to a cleaner future.

As part of its vision, Vale plans to develop mega-hubs for the production of green briquettes and HBI. These industrial complexes, set to reduce CO2 emissions significantly, are positioned to supply both local and international markets with high-quality agglomerated products. The first mega-hub will rise in the Middle East, with more in the pipeline for Brazil and the United States.

Vale’s audacious foray into green hydrogen and sustainable steel production represents a significant stride toward a more environmentally responsible mining industry. It’s a testament to the potential for change when industry leaders embrace clean energy and sustainability as core principles.
