The most important driving force for increased demand for many metals until 2050 will be the climate transition. That is shown in a new report from Svemin that was launched in September. The report is part of the project Society’s future needs for metals and minerals for a sustainable and digital society in a 2030 and 2050 perspective which is funded by Swedish Mining Innovation. The level of climate policy ambition will therefore be directly related to the availability of raw materials. – The faster we want to switch to a net zero society, the higher the demand for metals, says Katarina Nilsson, Svemin, project manager for the study.
