Peab and SSAB have entered into a partnership concerning fossil free, high quality steel. This means Peab is the first construction company to secure access to SSAB's fossil free steel for its construction projects. In brief, the partnership ensures that as of 2026 Peab has access to, and plans to use, SSAB's fossil free steel in its construction projects. Together the companies will also analyze various future possibilities for how fossil free steel can reduce the climate footprint of the construction industry. SSAB's fossil free, high quality steel is produced within the HYBRIT initiative, which was started together with the iron ore producer LKAB and the energy company Vattenfall. It is the world's first fossil free steel making technology where hydrogen and fossil free electricity is used instead of coking coal and other fossil fuels traditionally used in steel production. SSAB plans to produce fossil free steel on a commercial scale in 2026.
