Shareholders warn Nippon Steel faces higher decarbonisation costs with U.S. Steel takeover
TOKYO (Reuters) -Nippon Steel's proposed acquisition of U.S. Steel risks raising decarbonisation costs for Japan's top steelmaker, an activist shareholder group said, urging the company to address the takeover's impact on its climate goals. Nippon Steel, the world's fourth biggest steelmaker, last year announced a $15 billion takeover offer for U.S. Steel, which backed the bid, but has faced resistance from a powerful labour union and the White House. "The potential addition of U.S. Steel's 11 blast furnaces to Nippon Steel's operations will almost certainly increase the cost of decarbonisation for the company," Brynn O'Brien, executive director of the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR), said.
