Modern society depends on electricity. The work, comfort, well-being and leisure of social agents are subject to the electricity system. Whatever the matrix – hydroelectric, wind, solar, nuclear or biomass – electricity generation involves the use of natural resources and special materials, such as stainless steel. By making it possible to design more efficient turbines, rotors, reactors, exhaust fans and solar heaters, with less weight and greater durability, stainless steel contributes to the generation and conservation of electricity.

Oil fields with high naphthenic acidity, as well as pre-salt fields with a higher concentration of contaminants, increasingly require the use of stainless steels, as they have high resistance to corrosion and toughness, guaranteeing the properties of the final product.
