Induction furnaces have their serious shortcomings though with their lack of refining capacity. They and electric arc furnaces available to industry can't reach the higher temperatures needed for modern process reactions to take place. We still require blast furnaces for steel-making and the chemical process for extracting impurities and producing molten iron remains the same despite increasing efficiency with modern technologies and carbon capture, we still NEED coal for this reason.
Fact of life, without fossil fuels such as coal and without steel we're utterly screwed.
