Happy that the first construction phase of the PV plant in Krems has been completed (from left to right): Günther Felderer (Site Manager Krems, Head of Business Unit Tubes & Sections), Josef Halwachs (Managing Director voestalpine Krems GmbH), Peter Schwab (Member of the Management Board of voestalpine AG, Head of Metal Forming Division), Dirk Mahnke (Managing Director voestalpine Krems GmbH), Dietmar Harauer (Plant Infrastructure voestalpine Krems), Gregor Terror (Energy/Environmental/Authority Management voestalpine Krems).
At voestalpine Krems, solar panels are growing on and around the buildings. An impressive photovoltaic system with 8.5 MWp will cover around 45% of future electricity requirements and gives the divisional CO2 untdown to zero emissions reduction program a boost. A large part of the plant has now been completed.

H2FUTURE: Pilot plant becomes a research project
With H2FUTURE, we are researching the industrial production of green hydrogen, which is intended to replace fossil fuels such as coal and coke in steel production in the long term. The world’s longest-operating electrolysis plant at the Linz site provides important research results for our future steel production.
