Digitalisation

Digitalisation refers to the use of digital systems and data-driven methods to support industrial operations, decision-making and transformation. In the source, it is identified as a decisive element in the green transformation of the iron and steel sector. The archive may include digitalisation in connection with emissions data, product-level carbon-footprint calculation, process monitoring and the wider integration of big data, artificial intelligence and robotic technologies. It is a supporting capability for industrial transformation rather than a synonym for green steel itself.
