Reducing the use of scarce metals — and recycling them — will be key to the world''s transition to electric vehicles.
Access to sustainable raw materials is not only an important cornerstone in building a European battery value chain. It is also a strategic security question for Europe''s ambition to deliver the Green Deal. This has been highlighted since the launch of the European Battery Alliance and is manifested as a prioritised area for actions in […]
The demand for raw materials used to manufacture rechargeable batteries will grow rapidly as the importance of oil as a source of energy recedes, as highlighted recently by the collapse of prices due to oversupply and weak demand resulting from COVID-19, according to a new UNCTAD report.
Anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions since the industrial revolution have driven large increases in the atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO²), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). According to scientists, these …
EIT raw materials, the largest consortium in the raw material sector, based out of Europe, has also focused its innovation projects on the sustainable supply of raw materials (EIT R.M, 2020). It is demonstrated from our study that the supply risk of fossil fuels are lower when compared to that of metals.
