Abstract：The importance of the EAF steel development was stressed after the overview of the development process and the evolution of the production distribution in the U.S. steel industry. And the development of the U.S. steel industry since 2000 was analyzed. It was indicated that the U.S. steel industry had now developed stably. Finally, the energy consumption of the U.S. steel industry in around 1998 was reviewed, and the energy consumption statistical system, i.e. MECS, was introduced. It was shown that a big progress of the energy- saving was made by the U.S. steel industry, but there was still a huge potential regarding the energy- saving technologies.
