First load of pellets was delivered mid-November 2019. The fact that here we are, nearly a year later, and none of those pellets have been used yet, shows how much Covid has delayed things. At least they know their pellet stacker is in working order.

The video shows what looks like a full stock pile of pellets on hand. If they have not started production yet, it looks like they could start any time they wanted.

I don't think it is operational yet. I live in northwest Ohio and haven't seen any mention of it being up and running anyway. The last I heard of a potential start up time was when the resumption of construction was announced after lock-down and an estimate of "winter 2020" for startup was mentioned.

On Cleveland Cliffs youtube page they have several drone videos of the Toledo HBI site, very interesting to see. Here's a link to one from last month, and the site is clearly not yet operational.
