The project envisages a complex resource-saving effect from the transition to production of profiled steel in the electric arc furnaces and its teeming in the continuous casting machines instead of production of the same steel and profiled billet in the open-hearth plant and blooming mill plant.
According to the Russian procedure the expected emission reductions for this project 7 000 000.0 t CO2  equivalent was approved in the Russian registry.
Current status of the project Operational
Total verified emission reductions 2879179.0 t CO2 equivalent
