The report models supply and demand for fly ash and granulated blast furnace slag up to 2030. It predicts a small shortage in the UK in 2016 and subsequent years, indicating that supply in the future may reduce further depending of operation of blast furnaces and expected closure of coal-fired power stations. It also notes a global over-production of these products, mainly in China, and recommends extending the current import route from China or other countries to minimise price increases in the UK.
