Sustainability & Climate Protection

The cement industry is one of the world's biggest emitters of carbon dioxide. Around three billion tons of C02 are attributable to cement production each year. A new research project can help decarbonize it in the future.

Huge components - built to withstand extreme forces: Learn more about the design of slewing bearings and the forces they are subjected to in wind turbines.

Green ammonia is ideal for transporting green hydrogen as an energy storage medium.

Together with her team, steel strategist Dr. Marie Jaroni is working to make steel green.

Generating energy more efficiently while protecting the environment at the same time? Floating wind turbines hold great potential for wind power! thyssenkrupp rothe erde ensures that this potential can also be fully employed on the high seas with its rough winds and high waves.

The production and applications of steel are diverse and complex. Our colleagues at thyssenkrupp Steel told us what the steel journey looks like and what they are already doing today to ensure that tomorrow's production is completely climate-neutral.

Tin cans can always be returned to the material cycle by recycling. Nevertheless, there is still potential for improvement.

One thing we know for sure: In the future we want and need to make industry more sustainable. At thyssenkrupp we are actively working to implement the energy transition. With CI4C and the polysius® pure Oxyfuel plant, we want to change that at thyssenkrupp Polysius.

In the National Hydrogen Council thyssenkrupp contributes its expertise for the decarbonization of the steel industry.

Environmental protection and sustainability play an important rule for Brigitte Götte from thyssenkrupp Steering - both jobwise and in her private life.

Gray, blue or green hydrogen? We explain what's behind the colorful terms - and which color mix we're using at thyssenkrupp to take off towards green transformation.

In the "RESycling" research and developement project, thyssenkrupp Materials Services colleagues are taking up the challenge of making hot metal desulfurization slag fully recyclable.

Ammonia: The secret champion of CO2-free energy production

With the bioplastic PLA, thyssenkrupp is creating a sustainable alternative that is not only ecologically but also economically attractive.

Our Mission: to become climate-neutral. How? With a change of mindset and the right technologies.

From 31.10. - 12.11. the UN Climate Change Conference will take place. Find out here which climate goals are the focus of the agenda.

In a personal interview Dr Christoph Noeres, Head of Green Hydrogen, answers all questions around the subject of the production and use of hydrogen at thyssenkrupp.

We at thyssenkrupp are already making every effort to ensure sustainable production in the future regarding the energy transition.

The Ruhr region has the best prerequisites for becoming the new Hydrogen Valley. With its density of production sites and advantageous infrastructure, it can become the main hub of Germany's hydrogen economy.

The experts from thyssenkrupp Materials Services show how they make supply chains as green and efficient as possible.

How can waste in production be reduced or – even better – prevented? Read on to find out more about the tools Cornelia Spanka uses in her work and why she thinks thyssenkrupp is underrated.

Green ammonia in plant nutrient protects crops and counteracts overfertilization.

Some are visible from the outside on wind turbines, others provide stability and optimum power transmission deep inside: Our Big 3 for wind power.

To turn a version of a modern water electrolysis plant for the production of hydrogen on an industrial scale into reality, thyssenkrupp is working with the Canadian company Hydro-Québec. Together they want to produce the energy carrier of tomorrow in a sustainable way.
