Clean Steelmaking Gains Major Support

January 30, 2023

A Massachusetts-based company pioneering a new steelmaking technology that doesn’t emit carbon dioxide has gained major new funding from two industrial and high-tech giants. This should be good news for Colin Cunliff. In Issues, he writes that reducing emissions from this and other hard-to-decarbonize industrial sectors is critical for curbing climate change. And given the scope of the challenges, Cunliff argues, the federal government should make innovation in clean energy a national priority by beefing up research, development, and demonstration of new technologies and applying its full suite of policy tools.
