The energy transition has caused a race to increase the extraction of critical raw minerals
The expansion of electric vehicles, wind power, and photovoltaic panels will lead to increased CRM extraction, with clear implications for sustainability in the Global South. How can these challenges best be met?
Last week Göran Sundström, Professor and Head of the Department of Political Science, announced that Alexander Katsaitis and Faradj Koliev had been appointed Associate Professors.
The expansion of electric vehicles (EVs), offshore and onshore wind power, and solar panels—key technologies for green infrastructure— have resulted in increased demands for critical minerals, with significant implications for sustainability in producing countries.
