Thyssenkrupp

Summary

Thyssenkrupp is a German industrial conglomerate and one of Europe’s major steel producers. It is pursuing the conversion of traditional blast furnaces to hydrogen-ready direct reduction processes as part of its decarbonisation strategy. These projects rely heavily on public funding, competitive electricity prices, and the rapid development of hydrogen infrastructure. Despite strong alignment with EU climate objectives, final investment decisions have been delayed, reflecting ongoing concerns over cost competitiveness and long-term policy certainty. Thyssenkrupp’s experience highlights the structural challenges facing heavy industry in Europe’s net zero transition.
