The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) energy guide, Energy Efficiency Improvement and Cost Saving Opportunities for the U.S. Iron and Steel Industry, discusses energy efficiency practices and technologies that can be implemented in iron and steel manufacturing plants. This guide provides current real world examples of iron and steel plants saving energy and reducing cost and carbon dioxide emissions.

The State–of-the-Art Clean Technologies (SOACT) for Steelmaking Handbook is developed as part of the Asia-Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate program and seeks to catalog the best available technologies and practices to save energy and reduce environmental impacts in the steel industry. Its purpose is to share information about commercialized or emerging technologies and practices that are currently available to increase energy efficiency and environmental performance. 

The study analyzes the role of technology innovation and its diffusion in the environmental and energy efficiency performance of the Iron and Steel sector from the point of view of the cost-effectiveness of the retrofits of the main process at the plant level and, in particular, for the EU-27 Iron & Steel industry in the medium-to-long term. The report includes a wealth of information on technology options applicable to the iron and steel industry, along with their energy and CO₂ performance and cost implications.

This study contains an assessment of the cumulative costs of EU legislation on the European steel industry, as well as an evaluation of how these costs affect the competitiveness of this industry from an international standpoint. Cumulative costs are compared to production costs and current margins of the European steel industry, as well as to the production costs of international steel competitors. The study is commissioned by The European Commission's Directorate-General for Enterprise and Industry and prepared by the Center for European Policy Studies.

Published by the Joint Research Center of Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS), that is part of European Commision, this reference document provides detailed information on the Best Available Technologies (BAT) applicable to the iron and steel manufacturing.

This case study examines how OneSteel is embedding energy efficiency into its core business processes. It describes OneSteel's approach to energy efficiency through developing new systems and tools for the Sydney Steel Mills group, which are now being rolled out across OneSteel. As a result, OneSteel is expected to achieve annual energy savings of over 6% of total energy use through adopted savings opportunities identified by its assessments for the Energy Efficiency Opportunities program.

This case study provides a detailed accounts of introducing and implementing an Energy Management System and Energy System Optimization in Arcelormittal's Saldanha works located in South Africa.

Ladislav Horvath of the World Steel Association presented on EnMS in the iron and steel industry at the China EnMS workshop organized by the Institute of Industrial Productivity. The presentation gives a thorough overview of main energy issues in iron and steel plants, and how these can be effectively addressed by energy management systems.
