So my question is this, and forgive me if it is stupid. But, is this a path to make America more of a steel producer? Not particularly concerned about the green elements. But very concerned about China's production and use of the world's steel. Would this process help the US get back in the game? (Especially in areas like the Gulf Coast where hydrogen is produced incidentally by refineries?)

I’m confused..
rudimentary steel is melted iron and carbon.
If you remove the carbon you have iron, not steel.
If you replace the carbon with other materials, you still do not have steel.
Perhaps I am not understanding this correctly.....

So beyond just producing better quality steel at a cheaper price, a new metric to be met is some environmental target on carbon, randomly imposed by political needs of government.
NO. Its not the future. Its sounds like it will be an expensive failure.

you cannot generate enough heat to make steel using windmills and solar panels...
