TRANSATLANTIC STRATEGY FOR ENHANCING CRITICAL MINERAL SUPPLY CHAIN RESILIENCE - Energy transition is dependent on access to and investment in critical minerals and supply chains. Production and processing of critical minerals is highly concentrated in a handful of countries. For example, aluminum is essential for solar panel production while the main aluminum producers in the world are China, India and Russia. Geographic concentration of critical minerals and potential supply chain disruptions may create vulnerabilities for energy transition efforts. This panel will discuss opportunities and challenges associated with diversifying and stabilizing the global critical mineral supply chain and Western financial investment in the supply chain and infrastructure to enable clean energy transition and transatlantic economic and energy security.
