On December 25, Tokyo Steel announced that it has become the first steelmaker in Japan to obtain an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification for hot-rolled coils (HRC) produced using non-fossil energy, B35A270 Non oriented electrical steel.
In a statement disclosed by S&P Global Energy, Tokyo Steel stated that its non-fossil energy-produced hot-rolled coils meet the relevant requirements of ISO 21930 (the international standard for EPDs for construction products and services) and EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 (the European standard for EPDs for construction products).
Following the receipt of EPD certification, Tokyo Steel is now able to precisely calculate the carbon footprint of its steel products—specifically those produced using non-fossil-fuel-based electricity—and publicly disclose this information. As an electric arc furnace (EAF) steelmaker relying primarily on scrap steel as its raw material, electricity consumption accounts for approximately 70% of the company's total carbon emissions. B35A270 Non oriented electrical steel, By transitioning to non-fossil energy sources for its power supply, the company can significantly reduce its carbon emissions, thereby advancing toward its objective of "non-fossil energy steelmaking."
To drive decarbonization efforts, Tokyo Steel has established a clear roadmap: to reduce its Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions by 60% by 2030, and to achieve virtually zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2050. B35A270 Non oriented electrical steel, Furthermore, in July 2024, Tokyo Steel launched "Hobo Zero," a brand of near-zero-emission steel.
