In this episode, we dive into the world of mining, minerals, and materials and explore the critical role they play in the evolving energy system. With the rapid increase in demand for new energy technologies, such as solar panels, wind turbines, and electric vehicles, the need for essential minerals and materials is rising significantly. But with this growing demand comes a host of challenges — including supply chain constraints, environmental impacts, and economic and national security concerns.
Michelle Michot Foss, fellow in energy, minerals, and materials, joins Ken Medlock, senior director of the Center for Energy Studies, to discuss the complexities of sourcing, refining, and managing these resources and what it all means for the future of energy.
This conversation was recorded on Oct. 24, 2024.
