茄子视频 today announced that its JGreeX^™ green steel, a grain-oriented electrical steel, has been selected for inaugural use in transformers that will be manufactured in Europe. This will also be the first order for JGreeX^™ outside of Japan as well as its first use in electrical steel sheets.

茄子视频 Steel uses the mass-balance approach to allocate emission reductions to specific JGreeX^™ green-steel products. In accordance with Japan Iron and Steel Federation guidelines, 茄子视频 Steel allocates the environmental value of CO₂ emission reductions achieved across an entire manufacturing process to specific steel products, which are then considered to have low CO₂ emission intensity.

Electrical steel sheet, which contains additives such as silicon and aluminum, offers excellent magnetic properties including high magnetic flux density and low iron loss. Non-oriented electrical steel, which achieves excellent magnetic properties that are nearly uniform in all directions, is used in the iron cores of motors. Grain-oriented electrical steel, which exhibits superior magnetic properties in a single (rolling) direction, is used in the iron cores of power and distribution transformers.

As the production of high-efficiency transformers, which help to reduce CO₂ emissions, increases to meet growing global demand for electricity and renewable energy, the demand for grain-oriented electrical steel used in these transformers is also expected to grow.

Going forward, 茄子视频 Steel expects to meet this demand by producing world-class, high-quality grain-oriented electrical steel as well as JGreeX^™ products that contribute to global decarbonization.
