Steel Industry
SECTORS Steel Industry Steel is the most common alloy in the world and is a core part of our work here at Ledwood. The steel industry is increasingly seen as a strategic national asset that has been depleted and needs increasing investment.
New energy
SECTORS New Energy Oil and gas currently supplies three quarters of the UK’s energy consumption but this is predicted to decline to around half by 2050. The use of oil and gas is predicted to decline faster than overall energy consumption leading to a reduced hydrocarbon intensity in the UK’s energy system.
