==> picture [317 x 376] intentionally omitted <==

  • A consumable for Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) used in steel production

  • Functions as an electrical conductor in EAFs, generating the heat required to melt steel scrap

  • High-tech / High Entry Barrier HEG was the last new entrant in the Western world in 1976

  • EAF-produced steel emits one-fourth of the carbon compared to steel from traditional blast furnaces

  • According to the World Steel Association, EAF steel production (w/o China) rose from 44% to 50% between 2015 and 2023, while China’s EAF production remains around 11%

Industry Outlook

1. As per WSA, Global crude steel production in 2024 declined by 0.8% to 1,882.6 mmt, down from 1,897.9 mmt in 2023.

2. Excluding China, global steel production in 2024 was 877.5 mmt, remaining nearly unchanged from 875.4 mmt in 2023.

3. Steel production outside China continues to struggle with subdued demand and pricing pressures, as Chinese steel exports surged to 110.7 mmt in 2024, reaching a nine-year high and driving global prices lower.

4. India, the world’s second-largest steel producer, saw a 6.3% increase in production, reaching 149.6 mmt in 2024, driven by government-led infrastructure projects and strong demand from the automotive sector.

5. China’s shift to Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) steel production has stalled, resulting in an oversupply of Chinese electrodes and continued price declines.

6. Graphite electrode (GE) demand remained weak, with prices likely to remain under pressure for another 1–2 quarters.

7. The decarbonization push in the steel industry is expected to boost demand for graphite electrodes, as the adoption of EAF steelmaking expands globally. This transition is projected to create an additional demand of approximately 200,000 tons by 2030 (excluding China).

8. Despite short-term pressures, decarbonization is now an irreversible trend, and we remain optimistic about the long-term growth potential for graphite electrode demand.
