Sometimes you want a little carbon in the steel.
Like for building construction, or knives, or eek guns.
Yeah, the carbon is an alloy, but I’ll bet hydrogen-only smelting affects the carbon content of the steel.
Unintended consequences.
Using electricity to produce hydrogen is horribly inefficient. It takes considerably more energy to make hydrogen than you get from the hydrogen.
the only real green steel, is Rearden Steel... 8^)

The Stupid Party never bothers to publish this and show photographs of the air and rivers in India and China. Absolutely disgusting. These are the same jerks who believe windmills will power electric cars.
Common sense isn’t common anymore.
It’s articles like these that warrants a daily visit to “Watts Up With That”.
That’s what steel is - an alloy of IRON and (gasp) CARBON!!!
Ayn Rand had a damn good crystal ball.
Green steel? Hmmm … I like super blue a lot, but I’ve never tried green.
Reminds me of the US Navy being forced to use ‘biofuels’ to power some of the fleet. Bloody ridiculous, especially after Trump proved what we all knew, that we can have the ability to become energy independent. Obambi and company tried to make people believe that we couldn’t drill our way to energy independence. Trump probably made Obambi furious, in so many ways.
