A tale of two metals will determine the future of energy - Taipei Times. View article details on HISWAI: https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/editorials/archives/2024/02/25/2003814037

Summary

David Fickling's article discusses how imbalanced growth in nickel and copper production could hinder the energy transition to net zero. While Indonesian nickel production is booming, causing prices to drop, copper production isn't keeping pace with demand. This discrepancy could slow down the decarbonization of the economy, which relies on these metals for electric vehicle batteries and other technologies. The article implicates major mining companies like BHP, Rio Tinto, and locations such as the Atacama Desert and the Olympic Dam mine in the broader context of global mineral supply.
