Moderator of the Panel: Ercüment Ünal
Representatives from Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Ministry of Trade and Ministry of Industry and Technology will be providing information in this Panel session on the goverment studies for Decarbonization, Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), Emission Trading System (ETS) and regulatory frework of Türkiye about those issues.
Among the issues that will be discussed in this session are: Net Zero Emission Roadmap of Turkish Steel Industry, Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), effect on Turkish steel industry and exports, Emission Trading System (ETS) prepared by the Turkish Government, legislative studies by the goverment and and how to move forward in decarbonization investments.
State of the world steel sector in terms of carbon impacts by regions and by technology, How Türkiye compares to other competing producers, CBAM and its expectations for the steel industry, default versus primary emissions, How CBAM is calculated for steel products, an example, Cost implications based on the current carbon price

Moderator of the Session: Dr. Barış Çiftci
Implications of CBAM for the steel industry, comparison of emissions intensities of countries, Carbon costs and effect on international trade patterns and dynamics, Carbon Cost Growth in EU’s Steel Trade Partners, Dynamics of Decarbonization in the global steel industry and Türkiye. Decarbonization trend in the world steel industry, decarbonization needs and forecasts in the light of world steel production and consumption expectations, economics of transformation, methodologies, effects on raw materials supply, competitiveness of the green steel, challenges, opportunities

Raw materials status in steel industry decarbonization, the steel industry and raw materails markets picture in 2030, 2040 and 2050; where to start decarbonization, what will be the priorities, effects of decarbonization on the global scrap markets, expected changes in world scrap supply and demand, projections of scrap consumption of main countries (China, India, Turkey, USA, EU, Japan), anticipated changes in the positions of major scrap exporters and importers, expected changes in world scrap trade routes, New players in scrap, the course of global scrap export restrictions with decarbonization, Türkiye's scrap demand in 10, 20, 30-year periods and possible supply problems, alternative inputs that will come to the fore with the increase in demand for scrap.

How decarbonization will transform the global steel industry, Will it support the emergence of new poduction, processing and trading hubs, the role and status of EAF's in steel industry decarbonization, the best transformation or adaptation routes for EAF's and BOF's, the role and potential of scrap and DRI in steel industry transformation, how CBAM will transform EU and Global steel trade, to what extent CBAM effect production costs and competitiveness, will exports keep competitive in EU market, Forecasts on green energy supplies and competitiveness, hydrogen, renewable energies (solar energy)...

Challanges to Green Steel transformation, how to establish the most efficient production chain, better ways of organising steel production, is 2050 net zero targets achievable in terms of maturity of technologies and inputs supply (low cost hydrogen, green DRI, scrap...) What does the expression green steel mean

The effects of decarbonization efforts on international trade, how will CBAM shape world trade, is CBAM a kind of protectionist practice, effect of CBAM on Turkiye's exports, will trade routes change, will industries have to change suppliers, clients or sales markets, where is protectionism heading in world trade, will the carbon club planned between the EU and the USA be established?
