If iron and steel making are co-located, the EAF needs less energy since HBI doesnt have to be reheated again. Therefore, there are some cost saving of an integrated site and we need to differentiate between domestic and imported HBI.
Check literature to quantify this effect and if necessary implement some differnatiation.
