SAIL and ABB India Forge Alliance for Rourkela’s Smart Steel Future

Updated: May 22, 2025 11:39

Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) and ABB India have entered a groundbreaking digital transformation partnership to elevate the Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP) into a next-generation smart manufacturing hub. As SAIL targets a near-doubling of RSP’s output to 9 million tonnes by 2030, this collaboration will leverage advanced digital twin technology and data-driven optimization to unlock new levels of productivity, efficiency, and sustainability.
 
Key Highlights:
  • Digital Twin Technology: SAIL and ABB India have signed an MoU to develop and deploy advanced digital twin models for RSP’s blast furnaces and steel melting shops. This technology will enable real-time simulation, monitoring, and optimization of steelmaking processes, reducing downtime and improving product quality.
  • AI-Driven Process Optimization: The partnership will focus on building mathematical and data-based models to optimize iron-making, steelmaking, and raw material preparation. By exchanging operational data, ABB and SAIL will create predictive systems that enhance efficiency and minimize resource wastage.
  • Sustainable Manufacturing: ABB’s expertise in electrification and automation will help RSP achieve sustainable performance gains, supporting SAIL’s green steel ambitions and aligning with global best practices in decarbonization and energy management.
  • Strategic Expansion: The digital transformation initiative comes as part of SAIL’s ₹30,000 crore investment plan to expand RSP’s capacity to 9 million tonnes by 2030, reinforcing its role as a key supplier to India’s core industries and infrastructure projects.
  • Leadership Vision: The agreement was formalized by senior executives from both organizations, with a shared commitment to innovation, operational excellence, and the digital upskilling of RSP’s workforce.
This strategic alliance positions Rourkela Steel Plant at the forefront of India’s steel industry transformation, setting new benchmarks for smart manufacturing and sustainable growth.
