Scaling EPDs to Support Competitive, Low-Carbon Infrastructure Projects

Proven Low Emissions

The CarbonGraph model proved Nucor’s low-emissions process, which uses 82% recycled content.

Large Scale, Low Impact

While Nucor produces 25% of U.S. steel, it accounts for just 8% of industry GHG emissions.
