Hyundai Steel Incheon steel plant, also known as INI Steel, Incheon Iron & Steel Co.Ltd (formerly), is an electric arc furnace (EAF) steel plant operating in Incheon, Seoul National Capital Area, South Korea.
Location
The map below shows the exact location of the plant in Incheon, Seoul National Capital Area, South Korea:
- Location: 63 Jungbongdae-ro Dong-gu, Incheon Metropolitan City, Republic of Korea
- Coordinates (WGS 84): 37.489678, 126.637942 (exact)
Background
Incheon Heavy Industries was founded in 1962 and merged with Incheon Steel in 1970. The first electric arc furnace was completed in 1968. The Korean government decided to privatise Incheon Steel in 1987 and was acquired by Hundai Group.[1] By 2014, the plant had produced 100 million tonnes of crude steel.[2] In February 2023, South Korean Industry minister and chiefs of the South Korea's seven major steelmakers, including POSCO Holdings Inc., Hyundai Steel Co. and Dongkuk Steel Mill Co., signed an agreement to promote investment and technology development to achieve low-carbon steelmaking.[3]
