HYBRIT Development AB – Team Leader Direct Reduction
Do you believe in a fossil free future? Would you like to be a part of the revolutionary development of the fossil free value chain for steelmaking - join our journey!
We usually respond within a week
The HYBRIT initiative was launched in 2016 by SSAB, LKAB and Vattenfall with the aim of creating a fossil-free value chain from mine to fossil-free steel, with fossil-free pellets, fossil-free electricity and hydrogen. The aim of the initiative is to phase out the use of coal and to virtually eliminate carbon dioxide emissions in the steel industry, corresponding to about 10% of Sweden's total CO2 emissions.
On August 31, 2020, the pilot plant for direct reduction of iron ore with hydrogen was commissioned and in August 2022, the pilot plant for storage of fossil-free hydrogen was commissioned. The HYBRIT technology, validated and optimized over several years of development with very promising results, will now be used and further developed in industrial applications on a larger scale.
