Flat Steel 2024

 

Overview

Global steel demand fell for a consecutive year in 2023 and is projected to see only a small rebound in 2024 as economies continue to grapple with the Ukraine war impact, high inflation, high costs and monetary tightening. The geopolitical scenario has deteriorated even further since the outbreak of war in Gaza and the investment climate remains shaky amid fears of conflict escalation in the Middle East. Although the EU reduced interest rates, and the US is set to follow imminently, these modest movements are unlikely to restore economic confidence.

China’s post-Lunar New Year demand failed to materialise this year, with market players still awaiting the impact of Chinese government support measures. Chinese steel exports consequently continue to climb in 2024 after seeing a seven-year high in 2023. Chinese product is displacing HRC in other Asian markets. Over the summer, multiple Chinese steel prices recorded multi-year lows.

This has resulted in the EU’s “other country” quota for HRC being exhausted within days for multiple quarters. The EU has extended its safeguard duty till 2026 and capped “other country” quota origins at 15%, severely hitting supply from Japan, Taiwan and Vietnam. The European Commission is also mulling an anti-dumping probe against Taiwanese HRC.

India is adding HRC capacity at pace, in anticipation of booming domestic demand in the medium to long term. However, Indian demand has been slow to recover from the general election earlier this year, with the monsoons suppressing activity. The country is also said to be considering a trade case against Chinese and Vietnamese HRC. Amid mill maintenance shutdowns and higher prices than EU buyers were prepared to pay, Indian coil exports to Europe have slowed considerably since the first quarter.

Vietnam, which is also considerably increasing its production capacity, has launched an anti-dumping investigation into Chinese and Indian HRC, showing clearly how strained trade relations have become this year in an environment of depressed steel pricing.

Despite attempting brief rebounds at the turn of the first and second quarters, iron ore and HRC prices have dropped across the globe this year, pushed down mainly by excess supply in China amid weak real estate and lack of stimulus. European mills are meanwhile in fear of the region’s deindustrialisation amid high production costs and persistently high imports’ share in consumption.

The major flat steel-consuming automotive sector is expected to see weak growth at best in 2024 after being the only bright spot in 2023.

Kallanish Flat Steel 2024 will debate the most important trends impacting the global flat steel market in order to understand what the industry has in store.

  • Global Overview: Regional coil markets supply, demand and price trends
  • Raw materials: Pricing developments and impact on flat steel market
  • End-user demand: Impact of rising costs, inflation, and supply chain risks
  • Overcapacity: Analysis of the longer-term global market trends
  • Green transition: Challenges of sustainable steel industry decarbonisation
  • Energy costs: Impact of higher energy costs on production
  • China: will a demand rebound materialise? Will it cut production?
  • EU production: will it rebound amid high costs?
  • European policy: How will CBAM account for EU mills’ export competitiveness?
  • US: Will interest rate cut boost steel demand?

    Session 1: The bigger steel picture
    Key factors driving global markets

    Geopolitical fragmentation, slower global economic growth, surging Chinese steel exports, high energy costs, persistently high inflation in Europe and the US, a weak investment climate in Europe, and labour shortages in major economies are just some of the key issues the steel industry has been grappling with since the last Flat Steel gathering. These all remain risks to the recovery of steel demand growth. However, contrary to fears last year, the US avoided recession and Europe’s battered economy is starting to show green shoots of recovery. The early signs are that global demand is settling in a growth trajectory in 2024 and 2025, supported by disinflation and further monetary policy easing.

    Much hope is being pinned on the all-encompassing phenomenon of decarbonisation and the significant steel demand this will generate to create the new infrastructure required. However, regions are decarbonising and implementing climate regulation at different speeds, which could lead to more trade friction. India is widely touted as the next major demand centre but is also heavily investing into new steelmaking capacity. ASEAN is meanwhile building capacity at twice the speed its markets can absorb it. Along with China’s economic rebalancing towards consumption and Europe’s fears of deindustrialisation, what do these factors mean for future global steel demand, investment and trade?

    Format: 10-12 min presentations + Q&A

    Topics:
    • • China’s economic rebalancing – will exports continue to depress global market?
    • • India the new flat steel demand centre – but will capacity buildout outpace consumption?
    • • Will capacity-driven rise in ASEAN steel exports escalate trade wars?
    • • Green transition: how are policymakers and steelmakers adapting globally?
    • • What is the outlook for iron ore and coking coal?
    • • Which end-use sectors will be bright spots for flat steel demand in 2024/25?
    • • How are energy costs impacting production and competitiveness?
    • • European policy: How is CBAM impacting European importers? How will it impact trade?
    • • How is geopolitical fragmentation harming global trading relationships?
    • • Will global overcapacity threaten the progress of decarbonisation investments?
    • • How will global steel exporters to Europe deal with EU climate regulation?
    • • How will the presidential election impact the resilient US economy?

    Session 2: From emitting to omitting carbon
    What the energy transition means for flat steelmakers

    Coal must go. The traditional foundation of steelmaking. Upturned. While this is a systemic challenge, it also creates new opportunities, not least for the steel industry to reinvent itself. Steelmakers are investing in cleaner technology, with zero-emission hydrogen the reductant of the future. Technology suppliers have seen a surge in DRI and EAF orders as a result. Until there is enough clean energy and electrolyser capacity available, though, steelmakers will focus on improving the environmental footprint of their raw materials. A scrap deficit is a real possibility with demand projected to explode in the coming years, while cold-bonded briquettes offer an exciting alternative to producers looking to cut emissions. The buildout of renewable energy and hydrogen pipeline capacity is expected to generate substantial steel demand.

    However, where will the huge sum of funding needed for decarbonisation come from? Will flat steelmakers be able to ensure sufficient quality of steel produced in EAFs? Are consumers ready to pay more for low-emission steel? How will low-emission steelmaking feedstock be transported from optimal production areas to the main demand spots? Will CCUS become commercially viable in Europe, which needs it to prolong its mainly blast furnace-based steel production as free carbon emission allowances are phased out? These are but some of the challenges this session will aim to address.

    Format: 10-15 min presentations + Q&A

    Topics:
    • • Are consumers other than automotive prepared to pay premium for green steel?
    • • How will steelmakers finance energy transition – is state aid inevitable?
    • • Is CCUS viable? Are there any alternatives to ensure BF steelmaking prolongation?
    • • How will jurisdictions respond to looming scrap deficit?
    • • Will the DRI-electric smelter-BOF route see similar uptake to DRI-EAF?
    • • How can renewable energy infrastructure bottlenecks be overcome?
    • • Can EAFs produce flat steel for high-end applications?
    • • How will industry ensure low-emission metallics are supplied to demand centres?
    • • What alternative low-emission feedstocks are available to DRI and scrap?
    • • How can industry prevent greenwashing?

    Session 3: The Economy
    Will it help steel demand?

    How steel demand and investment develop depends largely on economic fundamentals. These have been disappointing since the second half of 2022, unless you are sitting in India. While Chinese growth is likely to slow amid its transition to a consumption-led economy, disinflation and further monetary policy easing should improve the prospects for other major economies. Turkey meanwhile continues to battle with major inflation, but hopes to soon enjoy the fruits of its recent economic reforms. In this session, a renowned economist will dissect and analyse the key developments and help industry understand what is in store.

    Session 4: Supply, demand, pricing
    How are shifting trade patterns, mill supply discipline and lacklustre demand impacting pricing?

    2024 started positively, with global HRC prices maintaining their rising trend which commenced last November, amid optimism that destocking was complete in Europe and post Lunar New Year demand would rebound in China, supported by government stimulus. However, after peaking at the end of January, prices have gradually come down, with no region or market providing a spark in demand this year. Even standalone performer India has suffered in recent weeks on account of its general election muting activity. In the meantime, Chinese HRC exports have surged, with most going into Asia and displacing coil that is instead coming to Europe. The European Commission recently amended tariff-rate quotas to deal with this. Historically import dependent regions, like North Africa, are ramping up exports, with new slab capacity in Algeria potentially finding a market in Europe and displacing Russian billet, which is seen as a tainted but necessary feedstock. Turkey has recently commissioned substantial new flat steelmaking capacity and is banking on European demand to help absorb it. But what are the prospects for European steel demand, amid the sluggish economic activity on the continent? Will Turkish suppliers benefit from the EU’s new cap on “other country” imports? Will coil prices see another sustained uptrend in the near term? With ASEAN adding steelmaking capacity at twice the speed of projected demand growth, will exports from the region intensify trade wars?

    This session will bring together a variety of market participants to discuss trade patterns, end-use demand and the outlook for pricing. What opportunities and threats lie in store for the market?

    Format: 10-12 min presentations + Q&A

    Topics:
    • • Coil price outlook for Q4 and 2025
    • • Will Chinese export surge continue?
    • • How will new global capacity investments impact trade patterns and pricing?
    • • Will Algeria replace Russia as Europe’s slab supplier?
    • • Will Turkey find demand to absorb new flats capacity investments?
    • • To what extent have EU mills limited output to support prices?
    • • What impact will EU quota amendment have on European coil sourcing?
    • • What impact has CBAM already had on European coil importers and their suppliers?
    • • How will end-use sectors perform in the near term?
    • • Will steel buyers be willing to pay low-emission green steel premiums?
    • • Will raw material prices remain elevated in 2025?
