Background
The Sovel Almyros steel plant meltshop began operating as part of the Sidenor Group in 2001. In 2007, the plant began operating a new direct scrap-feeding system, Consteel, that reduces energy used for pre-heating scrap. In 2022, Sidenor disclosed plans to install a 6 MW photovoltaic array at the Sovel plant.[1]
