SSAB is awarded financing from EU and Swedish Agency for Economic and Regional Growth
SSAB is granted SEK 1.45 billion in the framework of the Just Transition Fund, an EU fund that in Sweden includes support to the transition of the steel industry in Norrbotten. The funding will contribute to the transformation to fossil-free steel production of SSAB’s operations in Luleå, a technology shift that will significantly reduce Sweden’s carbon dioxide emissions.
