HYBRIT – prefeasibility conclusions
• No new major technical showstoppers identified• However, significant development efforts required to
overcome main challenges
• 20-30% increase in crude steel production cost• Cost structure strongly dependent on prices of coking coal,
electricity and CO2 emission rights
• Further optimisation possible
• On the same level or better than competing alternatives
• Anticipated shift in prices and market demands make fossil-free steel an attractive option
• Strengthened belief in the concept
Proceed with pilot plant (decision Feb 2018)

HYBRIT pilot plant - the next step
• Pre-engineering and design since January
• Location Luleå & Malmberget
• Direct reduction: ~1 ton/h DRI
• H2: ~600-700 Nm3/h (~3-4 MWe)
• Steel (EAF): ~10 ton/batch
• H2 storage: TBD 2019
• Time schedule
• Start groundwork summer 2018
• Commissioning early 2020
• Test campaigns 2020-2024
• Total cost 2018-2024 ~150 M€
• Includes CAPEX + OPEX for whole test period
• Co-funded by Swedish Energy Agency

H2 storage – an important part of the HYBRIT concept
• Underground H2 gas storage the most cost effective storage alternative
• Salt caverns not available in Sweden
• Lined Rock Cavern (LRC) storage promising alternative
• Natural gas LRC demo in operation in Sweden (Skallen) since early 2000
• Main challenges are 1) the liner material selection, and 2) rock mechanics at dynamic operation
