Japan to sell GO electrical steel to China
Japan, Tokyo: A purchasing team of a Chinese leading transformer manufacturer is expected to visit a Japanese steel making company Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal and JFE Steel, according to Steel Guru. Due to a lack of high-grade grain oriented (GO) sheets in China, the purpose of the visit is to negotiate the purchase of GO electrical steel sheets directly from Japanese steel mills, reports Steel Guru.

The Chinese Government plans to construct three HVDC feeder lines a year from now on, which will create a demand for a lot of transformers. It is estimated that a construction of three feeder lines will require 45 to 60 tons of high-grade GO sheets.
