Executive summary – The Role of Critical Minerals in Clean Energy Transitions – Analysis-IEA
In the transition to clean energy, critical minerals bring new challenges to energy security. An energy system powered by clean energy technologies differs profoundly from one fuelled by traditional hydrocarbon resources. Solar photovoltaic (PV) plants, wind farms and electric vehicles (EVs) generally require more minerals to build than their
