ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products will be at Coiltech Italia 2023 where we will showcase our offer of electrical steels for automotive and industry customers. A key topic of conversation will be ArcelorMittal’s XCarb® green steel certificates which can be supplied with any ArcelorMittal Europe product including electrical steels.

Tom Van De Putte, Coordinator of sustainability and green steel sales development for Automotive, Packaging, and Electrical Steels at ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products answers some of the questions customers have about electrical steels and XCarb® green steel certificates.

What are XCarb® green steel certificates?

The certificates enable customers to reduce their Scope 3 (supply chain) greenhouse gas emissions. ArcelorMittal’s customer can choose to pass the certificates on to the end customer for the steel. That customer can use them to reduce their own Scope 3 emissions.

What are the advantages of XCarb® green steel certificates for ArcelorMittal’s automotive and industrial electrical steel customers?

ArcelorMittal’s XCarb® green steel certificates are a great option for customers who want to lower their supply chain emissions. This can help them meet their internal targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Customers who buy XCarb® green steel certificates are supporting ArcelorMittal to deploy innovative carbon-reduction technologies. This impacts the decarbonisation of the electrical steel supply chain.

In the long term, ArcelorMittal’s goal is to become a net zero-carbon steelmaker by 2050.

ArcelorMittal Europe produces electrical steels at its mill in St. Chély-d’Apcher (France). From 2025, ArcelorMittal will produce electrical steels at two sites in France: St. Chély-d’Apcher and Mardyck.

What are the advantages of high-quality electrical steels in motors?

Electrical steels are used as laminations in the magnetic core of electrical motors and are a key part of a vehicle’s propulsion system. Electrical steels for automotive traction motors are amongst the most complex types of steel to produce. Ultimately they define how much electricity an engine consumes.

High-quality electrical steels are vital for the transition to greener mobility solutions

If you are interested in significantly reducing the CO2 impact of your products, please get in touch with your usual ArcelorMittal contact person, or visit our stand at Coiltech Italia 2023. We’d be happy to discuss further cooperation.
