Steel Sector

India is the world's second-largest steel producer. The sector is dominated by blast furnace (BF-BOF) production, which is carbon-intensive at ~2.0-2.7 tCO2e per tonne of crude steel. Direct reduced iron (DRI-EAF) is a lower-carbon alternative used by some producers.

Why This Matters: CBAM

The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) imposes a carbon cost on steel imports. In 2026, 2.5% of embedded emissions are charged at ~EUR 75/tCO2e. By 2034, it's 100%. India has no qualifying carbon price, so Indian steel exporters face the full CBAM cost.

Example: 1,000 tonnes of HR coil (BF-BOF) at 2034 rates = ~EUR 150,000 in CBAM costs (~INR 1.4 crore).
