The availability of green hydrogen as a fuel will help reduce India’s dependence on coal for steel making, Tata Steel CEO and MD TV Narendran said on Tuesday.
Narendran made the remark at the National Management Convention session of All India Management Association (AIMA) here.
“The way steel is made is changing and will continue to change further, as the industry is putting up new plants… Availability of hydrogen as a fuel and reductive is the key to reducing dependence on coal,” he said, adding that scrap will replace ore as the main input.
