脱炭素化の下での冶金産業の発展とその技術的変革におけるグローバルな傾向の包括的な分析が実施され、世界の冶金生産における主要な構造変化が概説され、産業機能の新たなモデルの形成に対するそれらの影響の主要な方向性が特定された。世界の鉄鋼生産の動態、その空間的集中、および機械工学、建設、輸送、エネルギーの機能を確保する産業発展の基盤部門としての冶金の役割が検討された。グローバルな価値連鎖における変革、資源をめぐる競争の激化、およびアジア諸国の役割の増大が、世界の鉄鋼市場の現代的な構成に及ぼす影響が強調された。生産成長の減速は、産業の安定化段階への移行と、量的拡大から構造的・技術的変化への重点の移行を伴うことが確認された。分析に基づき、脱炭素化が冶金産業における変革の主要な要因であり、伝統的な高炉ルートから低炭素技術、主にDRI/EAFへの移行、ならびに水素ベース技術と電気冶金の発展を引き起こすことが決定された。産業の資源基盤における変化、特にスクラップと高品質鉄鉱石の役割の増大が、冶金企業の機能のための新たな条件を形成し、それらの競争力を決定することが示された。鉄鉱石とスクラップのフローの空間的分布は、資源供給における非対称性を反映し、金属製品の生産と消費の安定した中心の形成を決定することが明らかにされた。気候政策手段と炭素規制が冶金産業の発展に及ぼす影響が開示され、特に国際的な競争条件の変化と技術的近代化の促進の観点から検討された。CO2排出削減要件の強化、炭素価格付けメカニズムの導入、およびグリーンエネルギーの役割の増大が、より高い技術水準、資源効率、および環境持続可能性に向けた産業発展の新たな論理を定義することが立証された。冶金産業の発展におけるグローバルな傾向は、国家産業モデルの変革のための前提条件を生み出し、特にウクライナにおいて、生産潜在力の維持が技術的近代化と新たなグローバルな価値連鎖への統合の必要性と組み合わされていることが決定された。研究結果は、低炭素かつ革新的な発展に基づくウクライナの冶金産業の回復と発展を目的とした産業政策の形成にとって実践的な意義を有する。

A comprehensive analysis of global trends in the development of the metallurgical industry and its technological transformation under decarbonisation is carried out, the main structural changes in world metallurgical production are outlined, and the key directions of their influence on the formation of a new model of industry functioning are identified. The dynamics of global steel production, its spatial concentration, and the role of metallurgy as a basic sector of industrial development ensuring the functioning of mechanical engineering, construction, transport, and energy are examined. The influence of transformations in global value chains, intensification of competition for resources, and the growing role of Asian countries on the contemporary configuration of the global steel market is highlighted. It is established that the slowdown in production growth is accompanied by the transition of the industry to a stabilisation phase and a shift in emphasis from quantitative expansion to structural and technological changes. Based on the analysis, it is determined that decarbonisation is the key factor of transformation in the metallurgical industry, causing a transition from the traditional blast-furnace route to low-carbon technologies, primarily DRI/EAF, as well as the development of hydrogen-based technologies and electrometallurgy. It is shown that changes in the resource base of the industry, in particular the increasing role of scrap and high-quality iron ore, form new conditions for the functioning of metallurgical enterprises and determine their competitiveness. It is revealed that the spatial distribution of iron ore and scrap flows reflects asymmetry in resource provision and determines the formation of stable centres of production and consumption of metal products. The impact of climate policy instruments and carbon regulation on the development of the metallurgical industry is disclosed, particularly in terms of changing international competitive conditions and stimulating technological modernisation. It is substantiated that the strengthening of CO2 emission reduction requirements, the introduction of carbon pricing mechanisms, and the increasing role of green energy define a new logic of industry development oriented towards higher technological level, resource efficiency, and environmental sustainability. It is determined that global trends in the development of the metallurgical industry create preconditions for the transformation of national industry models, particularly in Ukraine, where the preservation of production potential is combined with the need for technological modernisation and integration into new global value chains. The results of the study have practical significance for the formation of industrial policy aimed at the recovery and development of Ukraine’s metallurgical industry on the basis of low-carbon and innovative development.
