Steel has helped revolutionize many industries, but one of the most important in the 21st century is power generation and transmission across the country. As the likelihood of a transition from fossil fuel-powered electricity to renewable energy increases, steel is the bridge from one to the other.
From the traditional facilities such as coal-fired and nuclear plants to the next generation of energy production like wind and geothermal, steel makes it possible to build on the scale necessary while maintaining reliability and longevity. We’re proud to work with the power industry to help people across the country have dependable energy infrastructure.
