Given the rising trajectory of emissions, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) introduced the concept of carbon capture in a 2014 report and subsequent reports. It stressed the need for carbon capture in 2022 by including some form of it in almost all its forecasting scenarios. All existing CCUS technologies are nascent, so they ...

Geopolitical risk, supply concentration, technological disruption, and rising sustainability expectations are among the key factors shaping the critical raw materials (CRM) market. Production and, more importantly, the processing of key CRM remain highly concentrated in a few countries, mainly China, Indonesia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo ...
