Thyssenkrupp's Green Steel Project Faces Uncertainty Amid Government Support

The NRW government reaffirms its commitment to Thyssenkrupp's hydrogen-powered steel plant despite potential project halts.

Thyssenkrupp's green steel initiative in Duisburg is under scrutiny, with potential for the project to be halted.
The NRW state government has pledged 700 million euros to the project, with an additional 1.3 billion euros from the federal government.
Concerns were raised following a report suggesting Thyssenkrupp is evaluating scenarios that include stopping the project.
Wirtschaftsministerin Mona Neubaur emphasizes the importance of the project for climate-neutral steel production and job security.
The SPD initiated a special parliamentary session to discuss the project's future and its impact on the regional hydrogen economy.
