There is growing support for the transition from a global energy infrastructure dependent on coal, natural gas, and oil to one entirely reliant on a combination of battery electric vehicles, photovoltaic solar, wind turbines, and grid-scale battery storage. Manufacturing and deploying these renewable energy resources requires dozens of natural resources, including copper, lithium, nickel, tellurium, cobalt, indium, tin, chromium, and many, many others. Where do these resources come from? Is there enough? Will they be available on the timescale we need? What are the economic constraints on their availability? What are the environmental permitting constraints on the timeframe for production and delivery to market? What are the political constraints on their availability? Please join me for a presentation where I answer these questions and more.
