India will host Bharat Steel 2026, a major international conference aimed at shaping the future of the global steel industry, with a strong emphasis on sustainable, low-carbon and resilient steelmaking practices. The event is scheduled to take place in New Delhi and is expected to attract wide participation from across the global steel ecosystem.
The summit will bring together policymakers, steel producers, technology providers, researchers, start-ups and investors to deliberate on emerging challenges and opportunities in the sector. Discussions will focus on strengthening supply chains, enhancing resource efficiency and accelerating the transition towards environmentally responsible steel production.
A key theme of the event will be green steel, highlighting technologies and pathways that reduce carbon emissions through renewable energy integration, green hydrogen-based processes, increased use of scrap and circular materials, and adoption of advanced carbon management solutions. The forum aims to promote innovation that aligns industrial growth with climate goals.
Bharat Steel 2026 will also address issues related to global trade dynamics, raw material security, geopolitical risks and the need for technological modernisation to improve competitiveness and resilience. Sessions are expected to explore policy frameworks, investment strategies and international collaboration required to support long-term sectoral transformation.
As one of the world’s largest steel producers, India is positioning itself as a key player in the global shift toward cleaner steelmaking. The conference aligns with the country’s broader industrial and infrastructure ambitions, while reinforcing its commitment to sustainable manufacturing and future-ready industrial development.
