This paper focuses on strategies, policies, and programs that industry and government can develop to ensure that supply chains for EVs and their batteries are secure, circular, and reduce the need for mining virgin minerals, thus reducing adverse impacts on the planet and its people.
This report looks at the mineral demand for a net-zero emissions energy system, focusing on seven critical minerals and discussing the role of technological choices, circular economy strategies, and responsible mining in reducing the environmental impact of the transition.
This report investigates the potential to develop circular supply chains for EV batteries.
This study maps the current landscape of PV material demand and recycling, and charts a course toward a more sustainable and economically viable future for the PV industry.
This web page provides an overview of grid-scale energy storage, discussing the current status around the globe and providing recommendations for governments.
This report focuses on the material resources required for the energy transition and demonstrates that there are plentiful resources available to support a prosperous net-zero global economy.
This report delves into the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping the future of the steel industry as the global transition to a low-carbon economy accelerates.
The Breakthrough Agenda Report 2023 is an annual collaboration between the International Energy Agency (IEA), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and the United Nations Climate Change High-Level Champions. It takes stock of emissions reductions in key energy subsectors and focuses on supporting stronger international collaboration to drive faster reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions.
The Green Steel Tracker aims to support decision makers in policy and industry, academia as well as civil society, by tracking public announcements of low-carbon investments in the steel industry and presenting them transparently in one place.
