New Zealand Steel says its $300 million electric arc furnace will be built in the next three years, replacing two of its four coal fuelled kilns, making the plant far cleaner than it is currently.
The company says that'll save 800,000 tonnes of carbon from day one of the furnace lighting up in 2027 .
NZ Steel chief executive Robin Davies spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
