Steel consumption in the automobile industry will continue to see an upward trend since steel is used in cars in the most core applications for structural integrity and safety in automobiles besides achieving a lightweight structure to improve efficiency and reduce cost. OEMs are likely to build more than USD 500 Billion EV factories by 2030. In November 2023, Hyundai announced an investment of more than USD 1.5 Billion to refurbish its Ulsan factory in South Korea and build a new EV factory at the site. As regulations and consumer demand require better fuel economy and reduced emissions, manufacturers increasingly rely on advanced high strength and lightweight steel alloys for weight reduction.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Rising Product Demand for Manufacturing Military Aircraft</strong></li> </ul> <p>Another factor driving this market is the increased use of steel in the manufacture of military aircraft. Steel exhibits high strength and durability, along with resistance to extreme weather, which is essential for military aircraft. Steel is mainly used owing to its tensile strength and reliability, in the fuselage, among other components. World military spending increased by 3.7% in 2022 due to the Russo-Ukrainian War relative to the previous year. In 2022, the United States, China, Russia, India and Saudi Arabia were the five highest military spenders that together accounted for 63% of total world military spending. The aircraft categorized as military aircraft include fighter planes, transport aircraft, and helicopters. Steel is used not only for airframes but also for landing gear, engine parts, etc.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Rapid Technological Advancements</strong></li> </ul> <p>Emerging technologies drive innovation in fast-growing economies and create new opportunities for development in health, electronics, and transportation, with breakthroughs in emerging technologies including artificial intelligence, automation technologies, new material discovery and smart manufacturing processes. Electric and autonomous vehicles potentially reshape personal and public transportation while decreasing global damage for the natural environment. In 2022 electric vehicles were 14% of all new car sales. China was 60% of all EV sales worldwide. Over 15% growth occurred regarding electric vehicle sales in Europe during 2022. In 2022 electric vehicle sales in the United States had 55% growth. Electric vehicle sales reached to an 8% sales share in the United States.</p> <p><strong>Key Trends in the Steel Market</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Adoption of Green Steel Production Technologies</strong></li> </ul> <p>Green steelmaking is seen as a potential means by which the steel industry can cut its greenhouse gas emissions and meet international targets. The Indian JSW Group and South Korean steelmaker POSCO understood to sign a memorandum for setting up an integrated steel mill in India that can produce 5 million tonnes of steel each year. The project seeks to promote green technology in accordance with the companies&apos; sustainability objectives and to promote the Indian steel industry. Trends in packaging technology for food and beverages, durable and recyclable, support predictions for the global steel market.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Integration of Advanced Materials and High-Strength Steel</strong></li> </ul> <p>The production and use of AHSS and lightweight steel alloys for automotive and aerospace applications have greatly increased in recent years, which has increased demand for new and tailored steel products for and among various end-use industries. In the steel industry, high-strength low-alloy steel enables the automotive industry to transition to electric vehicles because of environmental regulations and the global effort for a more sustainable transport system.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Expansion of Circular Economy and Recycling Practices</strong></li> </ul> <p>Major steel producers invest in improved recycling technology and in a circular economy making steel more cost efficient and environmentally friendly improving the outlook of the steel industry. Businesses alter their practices to align with environmental laws and to respond to global concerns about climate change. Effective recycling processes and methods for carbon emission reduction exist as some examples of sustainable practices.</p> <p><strong>Leading Companies Operating in the Global Steel Industry:</strong></p> <ul> <li>ArcelorMittal S.A.</li> <li>EVRAZ plc</li> <li>Gerdau S.A.</li> <li>Hyundai Steel Co.
