Steelmaker ArcelorMittal is planning to construct an advanced steel manufacturing facility in Calvert, Alabama to meet the increasing demand from the US automotive sector.

Estimated to cost $1.2bn, the plant will focus on producing premium non-grain-oriented electrical steel (NOES), which is essential for manufacturing larger vehicles such as full-size pickups and SUVs.

The new facility will be equipped to have an annual production capacity of up to 150,000 metric tonnes of NOES.

NOES is said to be crucial for various applications including automotive and mobility, renewable electricity production, and electric motors, among others.
