Port Talbot's green future takes shape a year after closure

A year after Tata Steel's closure in Port Talbot, work on constructing a new, greener steelmaking future is in full swing. An upcoming £1.25bn electric arc furnace project will melt scrap metal, transitioning from the now-closed blast furnaces, which were losing £1m daily before shutting down. This significant development in steel production involves repurposing existing buildings, constructing new facilities, and creating job opportunities for locals, marking an exciting new chapter for Port Talbot's steel industry.
