Solar Array Brings Clean Energy to SSAB Service Center
02/15/2024 - An SSAB service center in Italy is being run entirely on fossil-fuel-free power after having installed a solar panel array on the roof of its facility, the company reports.
According to SSAB, the panels will generate 830 MWh of electricity annually.
“Our investment in a new steel roof for our Italian Steel Service Centre in Ghedi incorporating SSAB GreenCoat color coated steel supplied by Ruukki Construction and solar panels supplied by Solnet, is another example of SSAB’s commitment to eliminating CO2 in our operations. Whether at our steel mills or further downstream, access to renewable energy is critical to reduce CO2 emissions. This investment represents another step in securing this ambition,” said Tony Harris, SSAB Europe’s head of sales and business development.
