We have decided to officially name our flagship plant and Australia's first green steel mill "THE COLLIE STEEL MILL". While the name seems simple at first, it actually took us quite some time and deliberation (there were many ideas!) to arrive at the name. We think that it pays suitable respect to our location in one of WA's most iconic towns as well as our role in Collie's transition towards its green manufacturing future through the creation hundreds of highly skilled, local manufacturing jobs. So it's official! The Collie Steel Mill. WA's first steel mill, Australia's first green steel mill and the first new steel mill to be built in Australia in over 30 years.

A great opportunity to hear from the WA Government about its local participation and sustainability plans and how they could create opportunities for the local steel industry as well as how low emissions, locally produced rebar and wire rod from The Collie Steel Mill could support them and our local construction industry from our very own Don Johnston . Thank you Australian Steel Institute (ASI) and for organising this great event.

Green Steel of WA would like to thank the Western Australian Premier Roger Cook for granting our Collie Steel Mill Project Strategic Project Status under the Western Australian Lead Agency Framework whose aim is to focus the efforts of the government towards those projects that need to proceed first to deliver on the state’s decarbonisation and economic diversification agenda. Strategic projects are defined by the Western Australian Jobs Act of 2017 as projects that the Minister for State Development, Jobs and Trade considers to be of strategic significance to the Western Australian economy and have the potential to create a substantial amount of economic activity and jobs within the state, something which The Collie Steel Mill, which will create over 200 direct jobs in Collie while contributing over $1B to WA’s economy, very much achieves. Designated Strategic Projects will receive a high level of project facilitation through the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation (JTSI), across State Government agencies, further strengthening the strong support that we have already been receiving from JTSI, the Department of the Premier and Cabinet of WA of Premier and Cabinet and the WA State Government. Having already received our Development and Works Approvals in record time, GSWA looks forward to working with the Western Australian and Commonwealth Governments, local communities and traditional owners, as we work towards beginning construction of WA’s first ever steel mill next year.

Thanks to AMWU for inviting us to a delegation to Parliament House in our nation's capital recently. We addressed the industrial transitions needed for socio-economic sustainability at the same time as the energy transition drives planetary sustainability. -Thanks Tim Ayres and Chris Bowen MP for engaging with a delegation from WA about the energy transition and how it will impact Collie . -Thanks all WA Federal members who attended including Josh Wilson MP , Zaneta Mascarenhas , Varun Ghosh and Louise Pratt etc. -Thanks WA State Government Ministers Reece Whitby and David Michael for presenting the WA Government support for a Just Transition in Collie and overall economic diversification policy. -Great to meet with Ed Husic MP 's staff re NRF and to meet the newly born NZEA too, discussing general energy transition and green industry themes. - Also good to travel with Magnium Australia who have an exciting plant proposed for Collie, closely located to us in the Collie Coal Fields ('Coolangatta') area, with synergies with the steel mill. And special thanks to national secretary Steve Murphy , WA campaigns manager Darcy Gunning and WA secretary Steve McCartney #AMWU for inviting us and modelling how 'new entrant' industrial players and unions can collaborate for positive impact. We are fully aligned on the need an opportunity to develop a green manufacturing industry in Australia, and they bring passion and roll up their sleeves to really help give it a shot. The most important part was when two AMWU delegates Chad and Dan, who work on a coal mine and a coal plant, got to provide their perspectives. They gave dignified descriptions of trying to help out mates through a massive change and uncertainty. The anticipation of the looming closure of the coal industry (all within 4 and a bit years from today), as the source of putting bread on the table and the lifeblood of the community for 6 generations in Collie, had a real impact on everyone who got to hear them.

Thank you Engineers Australia for including us amongst the 5 most promising green steel projects in the world! The race is indeed on!

A great article about Australia's Green Steel opportunity by the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) which talks about our green steel and iron projects in Western Australia and how the Australian Government is ramping up its efforts in this area. Thank you Peter Koppman and Charmaine T. !

WA’s first steel mill receives its Works (Environmental) Approval GSWA are pleased to announce that our Collie Steel mill has been granted a Works Approval by the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation . Working closely with our partners GHD and with great support from the WA State Government, our Works Approval application was granted in under 5 months from submission, a great achievement for a project of this size (perhaps even a record!). We’re certain that the fact that our Collie plant will be the cleanest and greenest steel mill ever built in Australia would have helped with the rapid approval thanks to the use of proven technology by our partners Danieli Group . For those of you unfamiliar with Western Australia’s approvals system, a Works Approval is the primary environmental approval required before commencing the construction of a major industrial facility and a major milestone for a project. In order to grant a Works Approval, the Department must be satisfied that the plant and controls sufficiently prevent, control, abate and mitigate pollution or environmental harm, under Part V of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act). This approval combined with our State Planning approval puts us well on track towards obtaining all of the primary construction approvals required for us to commence building WA’s first steel mill.

Great news for Australia’s future in green metals!

Automated rebar bending and cutting machines fed off spooled rebar are much safer, faster and more efficient than traditional methods using pieces of straight rebar. As you can see in the video below, no hands are involved in bending, and there are little to no off cuts reducing waste. However, these machines do require very good quality spooled rebar to operate efficiently, which is where our world class spoilers by Danieli Group come into the picture. More about them in a future post. https://lnkd.in/g3XmBSZN

Our Collie Mill will produce twist free spooled bar (in 2.5 to 5 tonne coils) in sizes ranging from 10 to 24mm . With spooled bar, rebar is spooled into neat coils rather than sold as individual lengths. This reduces wastage (producing far less offcuts and manual handling / labour costs as automated machines can be used to unwind the spools and cut and bend them straight into required shapes (a good analogy is string, and why you don't buy string in individual lengths) This video from a nearly identical Danieli MIDA mill operated by Commercial Metals Company (CMC) in the US shows how spooled bar is made and processed. Coming soon in 2026! https://lnkd.in/g4W54MRx
