"We are fully aware that in order to succeedin our green and digital transitions or to becompetitive in any future-oriented technology,we simply need critical raw materials"

chairing the fourth Clean Transition Dialogue, February 2024

"The EU's objective to cut greenhouse gas emissionsby at least 55% by 2030 sets Europe on a responsiblepath to becoming climate neutral by 2050. Thisrequires delivering the twin transition, decarbonisingthe energy system and ensuring autonomy throughaccess and transformation of critical raw materials."

Eurometaux is the trade association representing the collective European non-ferrous metals industry, including miners, smelters, refiners, fabricators and recyclers. The industry employs 500,000 people across over 900 facilities, with an annual turnover of €120bn.

Metals: supplying Europe'senergy and digital transition

Metals will play a central role insuccessfully building Europe's cleantechnology value chains and meetingthe EU's 2050 climate-neutrality goal. Inthe wake of supply disruptions from theCOVID-19 pandemic and Russia's conflictin Ukraine, Europe's lack of resilience forits growing metals needs has become astrategic concern.

The global energy transition is metalintensive. Electric vehicles, batteries, solarphotovoltaic systems, wind turbines,and hydrogen technologies all requiresignificantly more metals than theirconventional alternatives to replace fossil

Europe's plans to establish domesticproduction for clean energy technologieswill increase its demand for a wide rangeof metals. This includes growth in maturebase metals markets (aluminium, copper,nickel) and the initiation of new commoditymarkets (lithium, rare earth elements).

Europe has a window of opportunity tolay the foundation for a higher level ofstrategic autonomy and sustainabilityfor its strategic metals through optimised

recycling, domestic value chaininvestment, and more active globalsourcing. However, firm action is neededto avoid bottlenecks for several materialsthat risk being in global short supply at theend of this decade.

The faster Europe decarbonises, thehigher its metals requirements. Ourindustry has the ambition to supply moreof the metals that Europe needs for itsbatteries, renewable energy technologies,and grids – at the same time asdecarbonising, recycling more, andcontinually lowering our environmentalfootprint. Achieving this ambition requirespolicy, uniting all policy areas to help ourcompanies compete globally.
