ArcelorMittal Urges EU Taxonomy Reform to Support Steel Decarbonization

5 Dec 2025
Topic — The initiative reviews environmental delegated acts to update technical screening criteria.
Message — ArcelorMittal requests including downstream processes to ensure meaningful reporting. They also want environmental permit conditions to serve as proof of alignment.12
Why — Expanding the scope would prevent zero eligible turnover and reduce the administrative burden.3
Impact — Environmental groups may see weakened oversight if flexibility replaces strict EU-specific monitoring obligations.4

ArcelorMittal urges stricter CBAM benchmarks to reflect best environmental practices

19 Sept 2025
Topic — EU regulation adjusting CBAM certificate obligations based on ETS free allowances.
Message — The company requests that CBAM benchmarks reflect best environmental technologies to incentivize switching from carbon-intensive processes. They want EAF steel benchmarks to consider fuel/electricity exchangeability, scrap EAF benchmarks applied to all long product imports, and stainless steel benchmarks reflecting lowest virgin ferro alloy content.1234
Why — This would strengthen their competitive position by ensuring importers face equivalent environmental standards.56
Impact — Third-country producers using carbon-intensive methods face higher compliance costs and reduced market access.7

ArcelorMittal urges strict CBAM rules to prevent resource shuffling

19 Sept 2025
Topic — EU regulation detailing emission calculation methodology for Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism.
Message — The company requests that CBAM steel levies be based on country-of-origin default values until 2030, using the most carbon-intensive production routes. They want indirect cost compensation maintained and a melted-and-poured approach adopted to prevent carbon-intensive steel from avoiding proper CBAM charges through processing in lower-emission countries.123
Why — This would protect them from competitors using lower-emission production routes exclusively for EU exports.45
Impact — Third-country steel producers lose flexibility to optimize their lower-carbon production for EU markets.67

ArcelorMittal urges strict rules for foreign carbon price deductions

19 Sept 2025
Topic — Rules for converting foreign carbon prices into deductible CBAM certificates for imported goods.
Message — ArcelorMittal demands a cautious and conservative approach when recognizing carbon prices paid in third countries. Only effective, explicit, and net carbon costs should be recognized for deductions. All direct or indirect rebates in the country of origin must be fully subtracted.123
Why — This would prevent foreign competitors from gaining an unfair advantage through non-transparent subsidies.4
Impact — Non-EU manufacturers will lose out if their local carbon policies lack transparency.5

ArcelorMittal warns 2040 climate target risks deindustrialization without support

15 Sept 2025
Topic — EU proposal to set 2040 climate target of 90% emissions reduction.
Message — ArcelorMittal requests enabling conditions before setting the 2040 target, including watertight CBAM preventing resource shuffling, affordable clean electricity and hydrogen access, funding for decarbonization costs, and European content policies for strategic sectors. They want legally binding commitments and monitoring systems with corrective measures if conditions aren't met.1234
Why — This would secure their business case for decarbonization investments and protect existing production capacity.56
Impact — Consumers and downstream industries lose if higher costs from uncompetitive energy prices persist.7

ArcelorMittal urges EU steel requirements for clean corporate fleets

8 Sept 2025
Topic — The initiative establishes minimum zero-emission vehicle requirements for corporate fleets across Europe.
Message — The company requests that the clean vehicle definition includes European content requirements and the climate performance of materials like steel. They advocate for using lifecycle emission methodologies to create demand for decarbonized industrial materials.123
Why — These mandates would secure a market for the company’s more expensive low-carbon steel.45
Impact — Foreign steel manufacturers would lose access to the EU automotive supply chain market.67

ArcelorMittal urges EU to remove caps on carbon cost compensation

5 Sept 2025
Topic — EU guidelines on state aid to compensate electricity users for ETS carbon costs.
Message — Remove the 75% aid intensity cap to provide full compensation for indirect carbon costs. Maintain current benchmarks without mid-period reductions. Increase the share of ETS auctioning revenue allocated to compensation from 25%. Ensure uniform implementation across member states.1234
Why — This would reduce their electricity cost burden and provide certainty for decarbonization investments.567
Impact — Other energy-intensive sectors lose potential compensation if budgets remain unchanged while eligibility expands.8

ArcelorMittal calls for mandatory default values to stop CBAM circumvention

18 Aug 2025
Topic — Consultation on extending the carbon border adjustment mechanism to steel-intensive downstream goods.
Message — The company requests mandatory default carbon values for steel imports to stop exporters from gaming the system. They want CBAM applied to downstream goods like cars to prevent carbon leakage. Traceability should be enhanced by making production data mandatory in technical certificates.123
Why — These measures would shield the company's multi-billion euro decarbonization investments from unfair foreign competition.4
Impact — Importers of finished steel products and consumer goods will face higher costs and administrative burdens.5

ArcelorMittal demands high tariffs to prevent EU de-industrialization

15 Aug 2025
Topic — New trade measures targeting global excess capacity to protect the EU steel sector.
Message — ArcelorMittal requests a long-term system with quotas limited to 15% for carbon flat steel and 5% for carbon long steel. They advocate for a 50% tariff on imports above these levels and strict rules on steel origin.123
Why — This protectionist framework would improve the company's capacity utilization and market share by restricting cheaper imports.45
Impact — Third-country exporters and developing nations lose their competitive advantage and preferential access to the EU market.67

ArcelorMittal urges flexible ETS cap and stronger carbon leakage protections

8 Jul 2025
Topic — Review of EU Emissions Trading System rules for 2030 onwards and beyond.
Message — The company requests flexible ETS cap options including non-linear trajectory, access to international credits and carbon removals, and allowances from market stability reserve. They demand stronger carbon leakage protection by keeping CBAM free allocation phase-out under review and adjusting it if the mechanism proves ineffective. They call for removing free allocation conditionality and improving indirect costs compensation to 100% in all member states.1234
Why — This would reduce compliance costs and provide flexibility to manage residual emissions beyond 2030.56
Impact — Climate advocates lose stricter emissions targets as flexibility mechanisms could slow decarbonization timelines.78

Response to Implementing Act on non-price criteria in renewable energy auctions

21 Feb 2025

ArcelorMittal is the largest European steel company and a leading steel and mining company worldwide. We welcome the opportunity to contribute to the European Commission consultation on the draft implementing act on non-price criteria, under the Net-Zero Industry Act (NZIA). ArcelorMittal recommends that resilience criteria should be ambitious in their design and applied as prequalification rather than award criteria; we encourage the application of non-price criteria to 100% of the auctions volume. Please refer to the attached document for detailed comments and recommendations, prepared in cooperation with the European steel association.

Steel giant ArcelorMittal urges EU to certify industrial carbon reuse

2 May 2022
Topic — The European Commission is proposing a framework to monitor and certify carbon removal technologies.
Message — The industry wants the certification to include industrial carbon capture and use while avoiding distinctions between carbon avoidance and removal. They advocate for recognizing temporary storage solutions, such as polymers and fuels, alongside permanent ones.12
Why — This allows the steel industry to monetize captured emissions that are currently unrewarded by existing carbon markets.3
Impact — Nature-based projects may face stricter scrutiny and reduced incentives due to competition with industrial solutions.4

ArcelorMittal and steel industry urge delay on CBAM free allocation phase-out

18 Nov 2021
Topic — EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism for imports from countries with lower climate standards.
Message — The steel industry requests that free allocation at full benchmark level complement the CBAM at least until 2030, allowing companies to focus on low-carbon investment. They want any subsequent phase-out after 2030 conditional on monitoring that assesses CBAM effectiveness. They also demand a solution for EU exports to preserve competitiveness in third-country markets.123
Why — This would reduce their carbon compliance costs and preserve financial capacity for low-carbon technology investments.456
Impact — Third-country steel producers lose market access advantages from lower carbon costs and regulations.78

ArcelorMittal urges stronger carbon leakage protection in EU ETS revision

8 Nov 2021
Topic — Revision of the EU Emissions Trading System to achieve 55% emission reduction by 2030.
Message — The organization requests maintaining full free allocation without benchmark reductions until 2030, avoiding rebasing and Market Stability Reserve strengthening, and ensuring effective protection against carbon leakage. They oppose free allocation conditionality and request adjustments for pandemic production levels.1234
Why — This would reduce compliance costs and maintain competitiveness against international competitors facing lower carbon costs.567
Impact — Climate ambition is weakened by delaying emission reductions and maintaining higher industrial emissions.8

Response to Revision of the Communication on important projects of common European interest

18 Dec 2020

Reply to EC consultation on IPCEI roadmap and revision of the IPCEI guidelines Today, companies cannot invest in low CO2 technologies in steel that will entail an increase in production costs, as there is no market that would factor in the extra cost of low CO2 steel vis-à-vis conventional steel products with similar properties. Elements that would increase substantially operational costs of low CO2 technologies are for example the use of new energy carriers and feedstocks, such as renewable energy and hydrogen. This would apply to technological pathways Carbon Direct Avoidance and Smart Carbon Usage in steel. The IPCEI Guidelines shall allow financing of projects at full industrial scale and provide adequate financial support of eligible costs, reflecting in particular higher operational costs. The following modifications are proposed: Include – under point 23 - a general compatibility criterion “conversion to low CO2 production”, according to which support for additional investment and operating costs with an aid intensity of 100% is expressively permitted under the state aid rules. For projects, which invest into installations with a long lifetime, the funding gap calculation should not be made across the full lifetime of the investment (point 31), but rather be confined to the duration of the project. The Communication specifies that First Industrial Deployment (FIDs) does not entail “mass production” nor “commercial activities” (footnote 1, Annex). This is highly problematic, as the successful deployment of low CO2 steel production necessitates testing and implementation at industrial scale. Given the high technological and financial risk that is intrinsic to projects introducing new process technologies at such a massive scale as it is required in the steel industry, it is particularly important to allow IPCEIs to cover the entire period of the investment (economical lifetime of a project), which for steel is usually up to 20 years. Against this background it should be provided that “mass production and commercial activities are allowed for at least the first 10 years of operation and/or as long as the production is characterised by an innovative element”. Synergies between public funding under an IPCEI and other funding programs at EU and national level (e.g. EU Innovation Fund) could prove an additional factor for a success demonstration of low CO2 technologies in energy intensive industries. The combination of the different instruments could provide both the necessary pool of resources, lowering at the same time the economic risk intrinsic to such projects. Therefore, the co-financing requirement of the beneficiary should be extended by the option of co-financing by other funds. Specifically, a provision should be added to clarify that it is allowed without any restriction to consider the relevant costs of project proposals submitted to the EU Innovation Fund, as being equivalent to and compatible with the IPCEI funding gap methodology calculation. Under point g) of the Annex on eligible costs, the Communication allows for the financing of CAPEX and OPEX of FIDs projects until "as long as the industrial deployment follows on from an R&D&I activity ". This misses the point, because obstacles to decarbonisation of production processes are not only of technical nature (which should be overcome by R&D) but also necessitate to develop viable business models in the context of international competition. This is true to all low CO2 technologies (e.g. hydrogen-based metallurgy, process integration, CCU and “recycled carbon products”). Point 31 of the Communication does not provide detailed information on the calculation of the funding gap. Guidelines and other supporting documents – case examples - could be instrumental in ensuring better application of the IPCEI Communication, including on questions such as how to integrate projects under an IPCEI, co-financing from other EU programs.

Response to Climate change mitigation and adaptation taxonomy

16 Dec 2020

We welcome the legislative attempts to mobilise investment in the EU to achieve sustainable growth in line with the Union’s climate goals and its Paris Agreement commitments. A common EU taxonomy for sustainable finance could play an important role in this process if drafted in a way that takes the specific characteristics of the affected industries into account, based on robust scientific evidence. This should certainly be the case with the steel industry, which has the greatest potential to reduce carbon emissions volumes of any productive industry, and in which environmental performance can only be evaluated by considering its overall production value chain. For this purpose we in ArcelorMittal have many decarbonsation projects, being build now and/or in the pipeline at different stages, with several technologies, like Hydrogen based steel making and smart carbon based steel making. Unfortunately, the draft Commission delegated act (setting the technical screening criteria against which an operation’s climate mitigation and adaptation ability is evaluated) narrowly focuses on only some parts of the steel production’s CO2 emissions. The main reason is that unlike for other sectors, the steel Hot Metal benchmark does not take all direct emissions into account due to the huge exported volume of waste gases, due to ETS free allocation rules reasons. It means that not all emissions in the steel production process would be taken into account for Taxonomy criteria; it would look like they are not there, which is not the case in reality. Other sectors who do not have these correction for waste gases in the ETS benchmarks may not have this problem with the ETS benchmarks for this other purpose. It would mean that a steel low carbon emission project would have to reduce much more emissions than in other sectors. It would with that artificially dismiss projects with leading decarbonization technology, also hydrogen based steel making and smart carbon based projects. It would also be a different treatment of sectors (competition & sector distortion concerns) and surely counterproductive to decarbonization projects’ financing. This means that, designed like this, this is a wrong criterion for this purpose for steel Taxonomy. -However, it can be corrected easily, to use the ETS Hot Metal benchmark, but corrected for the exported waste gases. Then, also for steel all emissions will be taken into account. This may appear to be a purely technical file, but has obviously the potential to hinder, or even prevent, the successful deployment of some of the most promising decarbonisation projects in the pipeline, particularly those with the highest potential to reduce emissions in sites that are above these unsuitable benchmarks. It is, therefore, key that the proposed delegated act is corrected. If for any reason it would not be possible to correct the ETS hot metal benchmark with the exported waste gases, for this purpose, it would also be possible to replace the ETS steel benchmarks using the principles of standard EN 19694-2 – developed with a mandate from the EU Commission – to assess the relative performance of steel production. It is of importance to use internationally or regionally recognised accounting rules, such as this EN standard, to avoid the risk of miscalculating emissions. The systemic operation of steelmaking – in which single production processes are connected into a process chain and optimised in order to achieve the highest efficiency/highest performance of the overall system (highest efficiency/highest performance of the process chain or value chain) – means the EU ETS benchmark cannot be used as an accurate guide to actual emissions. In addition, it is key that all decarbonisation technologies are on the list. It is counterproductive to exclude any, as the silver bullet to reach carbon neutrality in an economically viable way is not yet known. Therefor it is key to reinsert (as was included in the Regulation): Carbo

Response to Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism

31 Mar 2020

Dear Sir/Madam, The development of an effective carbon border adjustment is essential as basis for the transition to carbon neutrality of the steel sector production in Europe and a crucial cornerstone of European Green Deal success. This impact assessment is an important step to have the right design in place. For that, the following documents are attached, which we request to take into account in the assessment and policy: • Steel sector EUROFER paper on border adjustment and carbon leakage measures; • Legal note by 3 law firms on carbon border adjustment & the summary page of this document; • Steel sector EUROFER annex to the consultation on draft ETS Guidelines - to highlight that steel is at very high risk of carbon leakage.

Response to Climate Law

6 Feb 2020

"With the view of the European Climate Law setting the climate neutrality objective by 2050, it is imperative that the legislation does not solely focus on the long-term target but also on the regulatory framework within, which is required to reach the long-term target. It is for this reason we would like to submit as a feedback the attached policy document text 'Green Deal on Steel - Priorities for transitioning the EU to carbon neutrality and circularity. With the right infrastructure and regulatory framework, ArcelorMittal and the European steel sector would be able to develop, upscale and roll-out new technologies that could reduce EU steel production’s CO2 emissions by 30% by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050, while contributing to greenhouse gas mitigation across all sectors. For the success of the Green Deal it is crucial that the policy design is effective and includes the business case to go to carbon neutrality. For example, the proposal on carbon border adjustments can be a positive cornerstone of the further green deal ambition when designed in an effective way. However, it is clear that a design of the carbon border adjustment based on full auctioning would be detrimental to the business case and contra-productive for this proposal and hence for the cornerstone to further green deal ambition. In this fast changing geo-political world, it is imperative for the future of Europe and the climate that the policy design is right and constructive".
