Description

Miners and other producers of minerals and precursor materials for Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) operate in global markets and navigate complex national frameworks for tracing, diligencing, and decarbonizing their supply chains. While the impetus for supply chain traceability and due diligence varies across jurisdictions – from achieving strong ESG and human rights standards to reducing single source risk – companies are increasingly motivated to align with global sustainability standards. In this discussion, panelists will share perspectives on the imperative for - and process of – advancing sustainable solutions for mineral recovery, processing, integration, and recycling.
