Tenova will supply a Consteel electric arc furnace (EAF) for Nippon Steel Corporation's Yawata Area at Kyushu Works, marking it as the world's most powerful EAF with a heat size of 340 tons. This installation will enable higher percentages of virgin iron units for quality steel production.

The project supports Nippon Steel's goal for carbon neutrality by 2050, moving from blast furnace to EAF steelmaking in accordance with Japan's Green Transformation Promotion Act. The partnership with GE Vernova aims to enhance sustainability in the steel industry.
