Today, CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program launches the Project on Critical Minerals Security led by Gracelin Baskaran, PhD. This groundbreaking initiative to provide leadership as the United States races to build the resilient minerals supply chains needed for national, economic, and energy security. The Project on Critical Minerals Security will build upon CSIS’s longstanding work with policymakers on both sides of the aisle in order to support market-led efforts to expand production, processing, and recycling capacities to improve domestic and global security. The Project will also convene a diverse collection of stakeholders—including leaders from the mining and finance sectors, as well as environmental and social organizations—to develop sound policy proposals to enhance the economic and national security of the United States and its allies.    Learn more: https://lnkd.in/ezZAdQva

This vast resource could meet global demand for electric vehicle batteries many times over, positioning the U.S. for a major competitive advantage in the battery and renewable energy sectors.

Critical minerals are at the heart of Canada’s clean energy transition and economic resilience. 🌱 Leaders like Ardy Sufi of AtkinsRéalis emphasize the urgency of securing supply chains for materials like #lithium, #nickel, and #cobalt, which are vital for industries ranging from #EVs to #AI. Innovative companies like Cyclic Materials, backed by Microsoft’s Climate Innovation Fund, are driving advancements in the circular economy, showcasing the potential for sustainable growth. Canada’s $4B Critical Minerals Strategy is not just an investment—it’s a roadmap to strengthen our position in a $770B global market. With a focus on end-to-end integration and Indigenous partnerships, we’re building a resilient future. Together, private and public sectors can lead the charge in critical minerals, ensuring Canada’s global competitiveness. #CriticalMinerals #CleanEnergy #CanadaLeads #AtkinsRéalis #CyclicMaterials #MicrosoftClimateFund https://lnkd.in/gkX2s5Xv

What are the #geoeconomics of #mining and #critical #resources for #transition? A few takeaways from a great debate with global leaders here in Rio at the #FIIPriority #ImpactOnHumanity summit: 🟢 On the road to transition, ability to think and act #longterm is the main differentiator for both countries and corporations; 🟢 #Protectionism is no miracle: #IRA boosted the US local demand for EVs but did not solve the issue of critical resources; 🟢 New resilient #supplychains are being designed in the context of increasing world #fragmentation, fueled by #geopolitics; 🟢 Ability to deliver #sustainable #mining at a fast pace will be a key success factor for the global #energy #transition; 🟢 #Brazil intends to be a leading enabler in the global supply chain of #materials and #renewable #energy for the #transition; 🟢 South-South partnerships emerge to provide #decarbonization solutions e.g. for the steelmaking industry: ➡️ See Vale mega-hubs in the Midsle-East to produce #lowcarbon footprint products 🟢 High-quality, green, responsibly-sourced #lithium will be key to power the next generation of #electric #vehicles: ➡️ See the solutions developed by actors like Sigma Lithium Corp. (Nasdaq:SGML) Thank you Eduardo Bartolomeo, David Snydacker, Ligia Pinto and José Luis Manzano for an inspiring discussion. And congrats Manus Cranny for a great facilitation.
