A home for the new electric arc furnace: The building enclosure for the EAF is now under construction.

Construction of the electric steelmaking plant at the Linz site has made great progress as part of the greentec steel project. The new EAF steelmaking building that is currently under construction will house the Electric Arc Furnace 1 (EAF1). A look at the current status of construction shows how much has already been accomplished in recent months.

greentec steel Map: Keeping up to date with the interactive map

How has the greentec steel construction project progressed at the Linz site from 2022 to the present? How high is the production capacity of Electric Arc Furnace 1? And is the expanded scrap yard really as long as the Eiffel Tower is high? With an interactive virtual map, the greentec steel Map, the Steel Division provides orientation, clarity and transparency for the largest climate protection project in Austria.

Approval for hall expansion Refractory lining in a new dimension

New dimensions of greentec steel are being introduced into the central ladle refractory lining facility (ZAPF). In order to accommodate the larger ladles and the increase in work volume, the central ladle refractory lining facility is being expanded extensively and its capacity increased.

New challenges for green steel finishing

As part of greentec steel, Secondary Metallurgy 5 (SekMet 5) is a new key technology in our future steel production route. The shift from the blast furnace to the electric arc furnace (EAF) brings new challenges that require innovative solutions. Find out how SekMet 5 is being prepared for this and what exciting developments lie ahead of us!

New ladle tilting stand: An act of strength in a confined space

Construction of the new ladle tilting stand, an important part of the TransMet investment program, work from capital investment program of greentec steel, presented the project team with challenging technical challenges and time constraints. The ladle tilting stand was built at a new location to make room for the new electric-arc furnace (EAF). Time and precision were crucial. Find out how the dedicated team successfully implemented this complex project.

voestalpine Stahlwelt is being renovated

Beginning on 1 July 2024, the exhibition area of voestalpine Stahlwelt will be closed for roughly one and a half years for comprehensive renovation. The event area will continue to operate with limited restrictions, and the popular production facility tours on the plant premises in Linz will continue as before during the renovation period.
