And immediately begin the construction of the electric groups, for now I believe that the most advanced technology is gas, which can also be brought to the furnaces very soon. hydrogen ". "We - he concluded - have already nominated Taranto to become a hydrogen company that can be made either with electricity, or with natural gas, and these two elements would allow us to demand from the EU the protection of our green steel production.
