Signature platform
Global Iron Transition Outlook
Modelling future hydrogen iron pathways, DRI/HBI trade and global steel transition dynamics.
The Global Iron Transition Outlook brings together project tracking, steel plant mapping, iron ore mine and quality data, and future DRI/HBI trade modelling to support evidence-based analysis of the hydrogen-based iron and steel transition.
Modules

Open moduleA first release: structure ahead of data
These modules are placeholders in this first release. The structure is ready for real data integration with partners such as the Mission Possible Partnership and Global Energy Monitor. All figures, maps and indicators shown are illustrative and should not be cited until they have been validated.
Contribute project information
Researchers, project developers and data partners are invited to share project information to strengthen the Outlook ahead of validated release.
