Steel, an alloy of two metals – iron and carbon – is extensively used in the energy industry. Steel meets many demanding applications in the energy sector as well, supplying the industry with high-performance steel for various applications. In power generation and distribution, steel is used in transformers, generators and electric motors. In nuclear and coal power generation, it is used in heat exchangers and turbines.

This research service focuses on the innovations in steel and non-steel materials with a focus on some specific energy sectors such as LNG, geothermal, nuclear, coal thermal and biomass.
