Green Steel of WA would like to thank the Western Australian Premier Roger Cook for granting our Collie Steel Mill Project Strategic Project Status under the Western Australian Lead Agency Framework whose aim is to focus the efforts of the government towards those projects that need to proceed first to deliver on the state’s decarbonisation and economic diversification agenda. Strategic projects are defined by the Western Australian Jobs Act of 2017 as projects that the Minister for State Development, Jobs and Trade considers to be of strategic significance to the Western Australian economy and have the potential to create a substantial amount of economic activity and jobs within the state, something which The Collie Steel Mill, which will create over 200 direct jobs in Collie while contributing over $1B to WA’s economy, very much achieves. Designated Strategic Projects will receive a high level of project facilitation through the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation (JTSI), across State Government agencies, further strengthening the strong support that we have already been receiving from JTSI, the Department of the Premier and Cabinet of WA of Premier and Cabinet and the WA State Government. Having already received our Development and Works Approvals in record time, GSWA looks forward to working with the Western Australian and Commonwealth Governments, local communities and traditional owners, as we work towards beginning construction of WA’s first ever steel mill next year.

This is good news. Transparency on premiums and volumes of steel products being traded with a “low emissions” stamp is crucial for steel companies and steel production chain to correctly assess the feasibility of investments in decarbonisation and energy transition. Or, at least, to better estimate the amount of external support (just to avoid using the s… word) needed to make these investments happen.

Good to see more domestic protectionist measures in the Canadian steel industry. The latest warning comes from steel fabricators, who shape the metal into construction-ready products. They say that they’re struggling to compete for contracts to supply the projects, because overseas rivals – especially from China – offer much lower prices because of looser labour, environmental and other standards. #construction #steel #buildings #building #metal #imports #china Zekelman Industries Canadian Construction Association - Association canadienne de la construction Canadian Institute of Steel Construction (CISC) Canadian Sheet Steel Building Institute Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) ICBA | Independent Contractors and Businesses Association British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) Alberta Construction Association Saskatchewan Construction Association Manitoba Heavy Construction Association 

Have you seen the front page of today's Herald Sun? Victorian manufacturers say they will have to cut jobs after being betrayed by “duplicitous politicians” who are allowing steel for a mega project to be shipped from China. Local steel fabricators say they were promised a lucrative pipeline worth hundreds of millions of dollars from the Big Build, only to see some orders disappear overseas. The state’s most expensive road project, the $26bn North East Link, recently sourced 11,000 tonnes of steel – part of an $80 million package – for bridge structures at road interchanges from China. Weld Australia chief executive Geoff Crittenden IWE FIEAust CPEng FIML CMgr CEng MAICD said that cost-cutting was to blame due to blown budgets. He said the Chinese company lined up for the bridge girders in Bulleen had been banned from the US, and that local manufacturers were “at breaking point”. “Our local industry is being held to ransom by duplicitous politicians,” he said. “If the Chinese turned the tap off on steel like they have with wine and lobsters, then we would be in serious trouble." https://bit.ly/48iFdPX #Manufacturing #SteelFabrication #LocalJobsFirst #AustralianIndustry #AustralianManufacturing #AussieSteel #WeldAustralia
