India's green steel market is set for remarkable growth, with an expected demand of 4.49 million tonnes by 2030, as reported by Ernst & Young (EY)-Parthenon.

This surge is propelled by advancements in construction, infrastructure, and automotive sectors, aligning with India's National Steel Policy targets of a 300 million-tonne annual capacity.

The transition to green steel involves adopting hydrogen-based Direct Reduced Iron technology and other sustainable methods, despite a current cost premium driven by carbon pricing pressures.
