IEA analysis based on publicly available announcements.

Notes

2025 values are estimated. Compliant refers to projects that operate as near-zero emissions from the start ; have achieved a final investment decision (FID) or provided strong certainty that FID will be achieved; and include clear information confirming near-zero emissions production. Capable refers to “near-zero emissions capable” projects (see definition in dashboards’ technical notes); projects that have not achieved an FID, or are not near achieving one, are also included in this category due to greater uncertainty. Production from announced projects shown here excludes near-zero emissions steel from 100% scrap.
