The Independent highlights the urgent need for investment in the UK's only plate steel mill, the Dalzell steelworks, to meet the demands for offshore wind turbine production. A report from the Community trade union stresses that 90% of the steel required for offshore wind technology is steel plate, which Dalzell must produce efficiently. The future of the offshore wind sector relies on significant steel requirements, estimated at 21 to 25 million tonnes by 2050. Upgrading the existing plate mill is deemed a priority to sustain the UK's position in renewable energy innovation and ensure sustainable production.
The Dalzell steelworks is crucial for offshore wind turbine production, needing upgrades to produce 90% of the steel required for this growing industry.
