New Delhi, Tata Steel plans to scale up the usage of hydrogen in the steel making process after the successful completion of the pilot project at its Jamshedpur plant, in Jharkhand, the company’s CEO and MD T V Narendran said. In April 2023, Tata Steel commenced the first of its kind experiment injecting hydrogen gas using 40 per cent of the injection systems in E-blast furnace at its steel plant in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand.
“It was very successful, we will scale it up, But eventually we need to have green hydrogen available in Eastern India that will determine how it can be used,” Narendran told PTI in reply to a question on the results of the trials.
