POSCO to invest nearly $1 billion in building eco-friendly facilities by 2021

South Korean steelmaker POSCO said on Tuesday that it plans to invest a total
of 1.07 trillion won ($957 million) by 2021 to build environmentally friendly
facilities and cut emissions.

Under the investment plan, POSCO said it will spend 350 billion won to build
new facilities after closing some of its aged power facilities. A further 330
billion won will be invested in installing equipment to reduce emissions of
nitrogen oxide and sulfur oxide, the company said in a statement.

The rest of the investment will be used to expand and install facilities to filter
pollutants.
