Bolstering Energy Security and Reducing Supply Chain Risk in the UK, EU and Beyond

Time: 14:40 - 15:20

Date: 20-02-2024

Synopsis

Understanding and exploring the supply and demand dynamics of critical minerals is essential for the development of energy storage technologies. This keynote panel will investigate government-led energy strategies aimed at strengthening energy security from within, price volatility in the supply chain and how to minimise risk.

  • How is the UK government’s plan to increase resilience of critical minerals in supply chains going to directly impact energy storage?
  • What does the domestic manufacturing landscape look like?
  • Is the EU Critical Raw Materials Act of 2023 enough to secure the supply chain or does the EU need a response similar to the Inflation Reduction Act?
  • What is the key to remaining competitive in energy storage from a supply chain risk perspective?
