This study applies prospective plant-level Material Flow Analysis to assess the transition from blast furnace–basic oxygen furnace to hydrogen-based DRI-EAF steelmaking, using a Swedish case. The H2-DRI-EAF pathway cuts GHG emissions by up to 89% but raises electricity use up to 18-fold. Combined resource efficiency measures reduce hydrogen demand by 10% and electricity demand by 20%, supporting site-specific decarbonization roadmaps.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本の鉄鋼業はGX政策の中核であり、水素製鉄は経団連・NEDOの重点領域。本稿のプラント単位MFA手法は、日本製鉄所の脱炭素ロードマップ策定や水素需要・電力インフラ計画に直接応用可能で、SSBJのScope1/2開示や移行計画の定量根拠としても有用。
In the global GX context
Steel decarbonization is central to global net-zero pathways and transition finance. This plant-level MFA offers a replicable method for assessing hydrogen-based steelmaking's systemic resource impacts, informing corporate transition plans under ISSB/CSRD and guiding investment in low-carbon hydrogen infrastructure.

📄 Abstract(原文)
Abstract Decarbonizing steel production requires adopting low-carbon technologies and the efficient use of available resources, yet the effects of such a transition on the metabolism of the plant remain underexplored. This study applies a prospective plant-level Material Flow Analysis (MFA) to assess the transition from the conventional blast furnace–basic oxygen furnace route to hydrogen (H 2 )-based Direct Reduced Iron (DRI), Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steelmaking, and hydrogen combustion in the rolling mill, in combination with resource efficiency interventions. Using a Swedish case study, we quantify material, energy, and carbon flows across the production chain under different decarbonization strategies. The results show up to 89% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in the H 2 -DRI-EAF pathway compared to the BF-BOF system, alongside up to an 18-fold increase in electricity use driven by hydrogen production and electrification. However, achieving emission reductions at this scale depends on the availability of low-carbon hydrogen, which is currently limited. Material efficiency measures generate cascading upstream effects through reduced EAF losses and downstream scrap generation, lowering hydrogen and electricity demand. Energy efficiency measures–especially improved electrolyser efficiency–primarily reduce electricity demand within the processes where they are implemented, but still contribute significantly to overall electricity savings. Combined, these resource efficiency measures reduce hydrogen demand by 10% and electricity demand by 20%. This work demonstrates how prospective plant-level MFA can support strategic planning and site-specific decarbonization roadmaps by capturing the systemic impacts of technology shifts and resource efficiency interventions.
