Solar Energy
Steel provides the strength. Zinc coatings provide the protection.
Hot-dip galvanized (HDG) steel ensures long-term reliability that can withstand decades of exposure to the elements.
Transmission & Distribution
T&D network must grow 60% by 2030 to meet energy demands.
Utilities face growing demands for grid resilience, reliability and sustainability and steel is the perfect solution to this challenge.
Market Expansion
Steel & zinc are essential for renewable energy projects.
Beyond solar and T&D, new opportunities are emerging in wind, geothermal, battery storage, nuclear, and data centers.
What We Do
Reliable, Sustainable Solutions for Clean Energy Infrastructure
Steel is the backbone of renewable energy. From solar piles and transmission poles to wind towers and battery storage, the Clean Energy Steel Construction Center (CES) promotes North American steel as the foundation of clean energy.
The Problem We Solve
A common challenge has been confusion about corrosion and coatings.
Clear guidance is needed to help stakeholders understand where and when zinc coatings such as hot-dip galvanizing (HDG) offer solution for durability and lifecycle performance in clean energy infrastructure.
With the protection of high-quality zinc coatings like hot-dip galvanizing (HDG), steel delivers unmatched durability, sustainability, and reliability for decades of performance.
Who We Are
Expanding the role of North American steel in clean energy
CES brings together steel producers, galvanizers, zinc suppliers, and end-users to speak with one voice. Steel provides the strength, and zinc coatings provide the protection. Together, they create durable, sustainable solutions that developers, utilities, and EPCs can trust to perform for generations.
Together, we are shaping a stronger, clearer, and more sustainable future for clean energy infrastructure.
Why Steel + Zinc for Clean Energy
