Join ESMAP’s first Hydrogen for Development Partnership H4D webinar of the year for insights from the OECD’s report on South Africa’s iron and steel sector and its alignment with the OECD Framework for Industry’s Net-Zero Transition.

 

You’ll hear about the sector’s decarbonization challenges, priority technologies, and the policy actions needed to enable a credible transition pathway. The discussion will also highlight cross-government coordination, regulatory reforms, and partnership models to support implementation.

The session aims to inform public and private stakeholders, foster dialogue on shared commitments, and mobilize collective action to advance South Africa’s shift towards a more sustainable and competitive industrial base.
