Focusing on a sector of strategic importance to Türkiye’s economy and industry, the project seeks to better define its decarbonization needs and provide analytical data and assessments to support the steel sector’s efforts to achieve net-zero emissions. Four phases of the project have been completed. The fifth phase will run from March 2026 to March 2027.
