Green deal between Sif and Dillinger will make monopiles fully circular

Dillingen (Germany)/Roermond (the Netherlands). Sif (Sif Holding NV) and Dillinger (Aktien-Gesellschaft der Dillinger Hüttenwerke) have signed an addendum to their long-term steel plate supply framework agreement, strengthening their partnership by securing access for Sif to Dillinger's lower-emission heavy-plate steel for offshore wind foundations. The agreement aims to achieve full circularity of the monopiles.

The signing of this addendum goes hand in hand with the memorandum of understanding that Sif Decom (a Sif subsidiary) and Dillinger have concluded to participate in developing the decommissioning process for offshore wind foundations. This MoU marks the finalization of a joint-research project executed by Sif, KCI and Dillinger to produce a detailed design for a monopile recycling factory. Sif Decom will now continue working to finalize the business case. Once the investment decision is taken, Dillinger will be invited to actively participate in the monopile recycling factory, and in return will secure the high-grade steel output by it. The monopile recycling factory is designed to close the circularity loop by providing the recycled steel as efficiently as possible for Dillinger's low-emission steel production.

By signing the "green steel" addendum to the plate supply framework agreement, Sif and Dillinger have further detailed the transition to supplying green steel plates for Sif's new and enhanced XXXL monopile factory.
