The geopolitics of metals and metalloids used for the renewable energy transition - Sci... - 4 views

  • This study examines the geopolitical role of 14 metals and metalloids needed for renewable energy technologies.

    This paper (open-access) looks at the future needs for 14 metals, including copper, in the context of the energy transition. Coming from a credible source, the paper presents a balanced and reasonably complete perspective adding a new geopolitical element. For the latter, the Herfindahl-Hirschman index, well known from competition policy, is introduced, and 14 metals are compared to the geopolitics of oil. Interesting as well is the discussion what mineral revenues mean for producer countries.
