The Albany Gazette - Ternium Releases Sustainability Report 2025

Ternium consolidated Usiminas into its decarbonization target, with 2024 as the base year. The company aims to achieve a 15% reduction in CO₂ equivalent emissions intensity per ton of hot-rolled steel equivalent by 2030, covering Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 (categories 1 and 10) emissions under the GHG Protocol methodology, and including all steel mills up to the hot-rolling stage.

Key initiatives advanced during the year include the first full year of operations of the Vientos de Olavarría wind farm in Argentina, which generated 434 GWh and replaced approximately 90% of the electricity previously purchased from the national grid by Ternium Argentina; the ongoing construction of the new DRI-EAF steel shop in Pesquería, Mexico, expected to begin operations in early 2027; and the supply of solar electricity to the Ipatinga facility, raising the share of renewable sources in its purchased electricity mix to approximately 20%.

In 2025, Ternium invested $93 million in environmental, decarbonization and energy-efficiency initiatives, and $102 million in occupational health and safety programs. Ternium's second Roberto Rocca Technical School, located in Santa Cruz, Brazil, was inaugurated and completed its first year of operations, welcoming 192 first-year students specializing in Mechatronics and Electromechanics. In Pesquería, Mexico, the company's first technical school incorporated a middle-school level with 128 students, in addition to its technical high-school enrollment of 474 students, and continued to deliver strong academic results, with a 95% curriculum completion rate.

Although Ternium is not currently subject to CSRD reporting requirements, the 2025 Sustainability Report has been prepared considering the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) as a framework, which the company is gradually incorporating into its disclosures. The report also follows the international standards set by the GRI and SASB, the guidelines from the World Steel Association, and the recommendations of the TCFD, and describes the company's contributions to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
