Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council said: “The council’s planning committee will discuss the application for an electric arc furnace at a special meeting next week.
“The council, along with local MP Holly Mumby-Croft, continues to work with the Government to protect jobs and steelmaking in Scunthorpe.
“We are continuing to work with British Steel to develop 300-acres of surplus land at the steelworks to harness new technology and create green jobs. Master planning is underway to attract high-paid and high-skilled jobs to the area – using new technologies to create green industry.
“There is a massive opportunity to create something new, attracting innovative technology companies here to Scunthorpe on an underdeveloped site of industrial heritage.
