The Electric Steel Makers Guild’s annual general meeting will take place at sites across the Humberside area in May and will focus on renewable energy, sustainability and reducing environmental impacts from steelmaking.

Currently celebrating its 70th anniversary, the Guild's objective is to promote progress in the manufacture of steel for commercial purposes in electric furnaces and to encourage free discussion and exchange of information of mutual interest and benefit to members.

“Speaking about the May 16 and 17 event, Carl Brown - the ESMG president and Harsco Environmental UK operations director - said: “Representatives from all the major UK steelmakers and global suppliers will be attending the AGM along with the president of the American Metal Makers Guild (AMMG).

“This year’s event will focus on the new electric arc furnace at Marcegaglia Sheffield and the benefits this will bring to the Sheffield area.

“The Marcegaglia team are working with EON on a project to provide water recycling and heat to the Sheffield network alongside other innovative projects.

“Environmental, Social, Governance is extremely important in the UK steel industry and it's great so many fantastic projects and ideas are being worked on.”
