A typical electric car requires six times the mineral inputs of a conventional car, and an onshore wind plant requires nine times more mineral resources than a similarly sized gas-fired power plant. The rise of low-carbon power generation to meet climate goals also means a tripling of mineral demand from this sector by 2040.
