Two days before Tata Steel announced a proposal to decarbonise its UK operations with support from the UK Government, SteelCast visited the UK Metals Expo. Metal suppliers, manufacturers, customers and competitors alike came together under the same roof and one thing was clear… we’re not going to get far without each other.What will decarbonisation look like for the UK steel industry? Can we decarbonise the economy without steel? What would electric arc furnaces mean for the company’s operations and customers throughout UK supply chains? Is carbon capture and storage a viable option? With new technology on the horizon, how will we fill the skills gap?Tata Steel’s Gareth Brookes spoke to industry and academic leaders – including UK Metals Expo chairman, Lord Rupert Redesdale – to find out.

Hundreds of steel workers from across the UK came together to march upon Westminster and demand that the Government invests in the steel industry.Led by Community, Unite and GMB trades unions, their demands were for the Government to create a level playing field with competitors on energy costs, to invest capital in new green technologies, and to stop imports of cheap carbon-intensive steel.In the shadow of Big Ben, many MPs representing steel constituencies came to talk to steelworkers about their concerns.We caught up with some of them to ask how they would support the UK’s steel industry.
