INSPIRING INNOVATION

Overview

We believe our long-term success depends on our ability to adapt to the changing needs of our customers and their sustainability goals. That’s why U. S. Steel is advancing the future of steelmaking with our innovative processes and products. As we continuously optimize how we produce steel, our company brings essential value to our customers through transformative improvements. The results marry performance in critical safety applications with lighter-weight steel to help customers meet sustainability goals, among many other benefits.

DECARBONIZATION

We see the future of steel as a more sustainable one. That’s why we are continuing to intensify efforts to become an industry leader in lower GHG emissions production methods, and in offering innovative new products.

We have been progressing on our 2030 goal to reduce our global GHG emissions intensity by 20%. While we are committed to doing all that we can, we know that one company’s actions are not enough, which is why we have partnered with like-minded companies to seek solutions. The challenges of climate change must be addressed by the global community and supported by our governments to create an environment where innovation and investment are encouraged.
