Fastmarkets’ Green Steel, domestic flat-rolled differential ex works Northern Europe will be assessed weekly against the Fastmarkets’ established Northern European hot rolled coil (HRC) index.
A daily inferred Green Steel base price will be calculated based on the daily Fastmarkets HRC index and the Green Steel differential to provide real-time transparency.
The price specifications are as follows:
MB-STE-0904: Green Steel domestic, flat-rolled, differential to HRC index, exw northern Europe, € per tonneQuality: Steel produced with scope 1,2 & 3 emissions of maximum 1 tonne CO2 per tonne of steelQuantity: minimum 10 tonnesLocation: Ex-works northern EuropeTiming: OpenUnit: EUR/tonnePublication: Weekly
MB-STE-0905: Green Steel base price, HRC exw northern Europe, daily inferred, € per tonneQuality: Steel produced with scope 1,2 & 3 emissions of maximum 1 tonne CO2 per tonne of steelQuantity: minimum 10 tonnesLocation: Ex-works northern EuropeTiming: OpenUnit: EUR/tonnePublication: DailyNotes: This price is calculated by adding the weekly Green Steel differential (MB-STE-0904) to the daily Northern Europe HRC index (MB-STE-0028).
The Green Steel prices will capture the differential between traditional flat-rolled steel prices and prices for steel produced with low emissions (including Scope 1, 2 & 3) of maximum 1 tonne CO2 per tonne of steel.
All production methods and raw materials will be considered, including scrap-based production and steel made using hydrogen-reduced iron.
