  • Effects of the energy transition on environmental impacts of cobalt supply

    Open AccessMarc van der Meide, Carina Harpprecht et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2022

    Cobalt is considered a key metal in the energy transition, and demand is expected to increase substantially by 2050. This demand is for an important part because of cobalt use in (electric vehicle) batteries. This study investigated the environmental impacts of the production of cobalt and how these could change in the future. We modeled possible future developments in the cobalt supply chain using four variables: (v1) ore grade, (v2) primary mar…

  • Environmental impacts of key metals' supply and low‐carbon technologies are likely to decrease in the future

    Open AccessCarina Harpprecht, Lauran Van Oers et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Ecology2021

    The environmental benefits of low-carbon technologies, such as photovoltaic modules, have been under debate because their large-scale deployment will require a drastic increase in metal production. This is of concern because higher metal demand may induce ore grade decline and can thereby further intensify the environmental footprint of metal supply. To account for this interlinkage known as the “energy-resource nexus”, energy and metal supply sc…
