Opportunities for green steel in Finland

Event Overview

Scheduled for June 25, 2026, from 12:00 to 14:00 EEST, the 'Opportunities for Green Steel in Finland' event will be held at SuomiAreena in Pori. This exclusive gathering is organized by leading industry players including Outokumpu, SSAB, Blastr Green Steel, and the Climate Leadership Coalition.

Focus Areas

The event will highlight significant developments in green steel projects across Finland, which have transitioned from planning stages to concrete investment decisions. Outokumpu is already producing the world's lowest emission stainless steel, while SSAB is preparing for major investments in Raahe, and Blastr Green Steel is planning a substantial investment in Inkoo. Collectively, these initiatives represent billions of euros in investments and the potential creation of thousands of jobs.

Discussion Topics

Participants will engage in discussions regarding the necessary political decisions at both national and EU levels to ensure the viability of industrial investments and to accelerate demand for green steel. Key legislative efforts, such as improvements to the emissions trading system and the carbon border adjustment mechanism, will be central to the policy framework supporting these low-carbon investments.

This event promises to be a pivotal moment for stakeholders in the green steel sector, fostering collaboration and dialogue on the future of sustainable steel production in Finland.
