It is estimated that Wales’ overall emissions will be cut by 15 to 20% with the closure of the furnaces.The company will build an electric arc furnace to produce steel by melting scrap metal, with construction set to begin in August 2025.The process will take several years to complete, and will require far fewer jobs to operate than the traditional blast furnaces.

They really messed it up here a little bit, I've got to say."

He said it had stymied the ability to manage a UK wide-system."It takes something like 1500 degrees to take a smashed piece of glass to heat it up and turn it into something new. The energy costs and the carbon costs for that are significant.
