thyssenkrupp uses the latest technology to produce top quality CRGO in India

In India, thyssenkrupp is the only manufacturer of the highest quality CRGO electrical steel. The company recently expanded its manufacturing capacity to produce world class CRGO steel at its Nashik plant.
The company currently has the capacity to produce 50,000 tons of top quality CRGO. Grain oriented electrical steel is used wherever electrical energy is efficiently converted, transported and used, such as in distribution and power transformers.

Electrical steel is at the heart of the energy supply chain and is essential to the success of the energy transition. The future growth in the use of renewable energy sources will make this task even more difficult.

Wherever electrical energy is efficiently converted, transmitted and used, such as in distribution and power transformers, grain oriented electrical steel is required.

To transmit electricity over long distances, a higher voltage is required. Transportation requires about a thousand times more voltage than what is found in household outlets.

Before use in homes and businesses, the voltage must be converted again. Power and distribution transformers essentially require CRGO steel. This helps to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions if high performance steel is used in the transformer cores.

Powercore® from thyssenkrupp enables new and creative technologies that help protect the environment and improve the quality of life for everyone, from small, higher performance transformers to low noise levels in urban areas. Powercore® offers low loss grades such as 23HP80D, 23HP85D and 23HP90D in India.

By providing highly efficient power cores for industrial applications and power grids, thyssenkrupp contributes directly to energy savings. The development of these energy efficient products will continue as part of the company's "Make in India" mission. The company has exported high quality CRGO steel to more than 60 customers in 22 countries on 6 continents.

India's journey towards zero emissions and decarburization has pushed the industry towards green steel, and with the launch of CRGO, thyssenkrupp Electrical Steel has become an industry leader in sustainable steel production.

In order to keep pace with the market and comply with the strict efficiency guidelines issued by Indian utilities for steel, the company adopted the same strategy in a short period of time and successfully started commercial production of top quality 0.23mm steel with low losses.

The move has been appreciated by local OEMs and processors who were previously completely dependent on imports, thus contributing to the mission of Aatma Nirbhar Bharat in India.
