¡°We bring with us a portfolio of customers who want to have supply in North America,¡± H2 Green Steel chief executive officer Henrik Henriksson said in an interview with Bloomberg News.
The potential Quebec green steel project would be located on a 500-acre site in the city of Sept-Iles, northeast of Montreal, and require an investment worth between €3 billion and €6 billion. A prospective plan would see the company build a ¡®green iron¡¯ plant and a giant electrolyzer powered by renewable energy that would supply the site with hydrogen, replacing the use of coal. The iron would then be exported.
Another approach would include a full steel mill requiring up to 2,000 workers, similar to the Boden site.
¡°It will depend on the dialogue we have with authorities in Canada regarding power allocation,¡± stated Henriksson. The firm is currently looking for as much as 700 megawatts of electricity ¡ª about 1.5% of Quebec¡¯s actual capacity.
Company executives have also referred to the geographical benefit of Canadian-based production, specifically its access to the St. Lawrence River for shipments and the region¡¯s iron ore reserves.
¡°Fairly early, we could see that Quebec has this perfect place with a combination of logistics ready and a certain quality of iron ore,¡± said Kajsa Ryttberg-Wallgren, an H2 Green Steel executive vice-president. However, Ryttberg-Wallgren emphasised the key issue the project faces; ¡°No green power, no project.¡±
Aside from Quebec, H2 Green Steel is also doing a feasibility study on Texas, betting on rapid wind and solar development. ¡°Canada is definitely ahead, but Texas has a very progressive view on creating business,¡± said Ryttberg-Wallgren. ¡°They are not many places in the world where you actually have optimal conditions.¡±
Sites in Brazil and Portugal are also in the firm¡¯s future pipeline with its partners Vale SA and Iberdrola SA.
