SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall's HYBRIT pilot facility for the storage of fossil-free hydrogen gas is now in operation in Luleå. The rock cavern storage facility is the first of its kind in the world for storing fossil-free hydrogen gas. The two-year test period will now start and continue until 2024, which means that HYBRIT has taken another important step in developing the overall value chain for fossil-free iron and steel production.
SSAB has entered into an agreement with the Norwegian steel distributor Norsk Stål AS, as the first external distributor to deliver fossil-free steel on the Norwegian Market, starting 2026.
SSAB will start supplying commercial volumes of fossil-free steel to the market in 2026, when also SSAB’s subsidiary Tibnor will be ready to distribute it to customers across the Nordics. ”Tibnor is a very important channel for SSAB on our Nordic home market,” says Matts Nilsson, Head of Sales Sweden & Norway at SSAB Europe.
