Low-Temperature Iron With Zero Carbon Emissions
Our innovation overcomes the challenge that iron ores are excruciatingly slow to dissolve, and when dissolved, iron is more unstable than impurities in the solution and difficult to extract with high efficiency from the solution.
Low-Grade Iron Ore
We’ve cracked the code of using low-cost, low-grade ores, which are treated as waste today due to high silica, phosphorus, and alumina impurities. With the world facing a shortage of ores with high iron content and low-impurity levels, we’re tapping into these widely available low-grade ores and mine waste to decrease our operating costs while creating economic value from an under-utilized, abundant resource.

Lowest-Cost Green Energy
We use the lowest-cost, intermittent renewable electricity to power the bulk of our process, meaning we can start and stop production on demand. This, alongside low-temperature processing significantly decreases our capital and operational costs.

Highest Value-in-Use Iron
Our clean iron with zero impurities, including silica, phosphorus, and sulfur provides the highest economic value in use and allows EAF steelmakers to recycle a broader range of scrap in their steel production process, paving the way for a cleaner, more sustainable steel industry.

Premium EAF Steel
Our clean, high-purity iron allows EAF steelmakers to replace higher impurity pig iron and other high-emission ore-based iron feeds; leading to premium and advanced grades of steel with the lowest embodied emissions. Electra’s clean iron offers a clear “line of sight” from steel plants to automakers to consumers who are increasingly demanding greener low or zero carbon emission products.
