JRC study finds 8 metals for low-carbon energy technologies at risk of shortages; EVs, wind and solar, and lighting the applications of most concern

Green Car Congress

A new European Joint Research Centre (JRC) study looking into the supply of raw materials for the manufacture of low-carbon energy technologies found that eight metals were at high risk of shortages. The applications, i.e. technologies, of particular concern as a result are electric vehicles, wind and solar energy, and lighting.

Aqua Metals is building a more sustainable battery recycling ecosystem

Charged EVs

In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. Pyrometallurgy, which traditionally doesn’t recover carbon or lithium, seems likely to be phased out. We take that black mass as the input to our process, which is then powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy.
