Ensuring Sustainable Supply of Critical Minerals for a Clean, Just and Inclusive Energy Transition
Task Force 4: Refuelling Growth: Clean Energy and Green Transitions Abstract The global clean energy transition involves large-scale deployment of a suite of renewable energy, energy storage and other new technologies.

Searching for Critical Minerals? How metals are produced and associated together
Lithium reserves: could new discoveries reverse global shortage? Lithium is a key component of EV batteries. A global supply shortage may be reversed into a surplus for 2023, Bank of America predicts, as two major reserves of the metal were recently discovered. The first one, possibly the world's second largest, was found in Iran, creating a set of geopolitical implications. The second one was found in India, but mining the resource comes at a major environmental cost.

The current commodity slowdown has once again laid to bare the structural weaknesses of a number of African resource-rich economies. But can this misfortune be turned around, and this time permanently if countries adapt their strategy by leveraging their resources to create more economic linkages? This article suggests that local content can be an efficient policy tool to make the difference.
