Latest Sustainability Trends for the Energy Industry
Today’s energy industry faces increasing stringent requirements to report on the material uses, country conflicts, production and supply of energy transition materials.
Hazardous Materials
The potential harm from hazardous materials and chemicals used in renewables, automotive products and electronics has raised concerns.
Responsible Sourcing
Cobalt, copper, glass, gold, graphite, mica, and lithium are some of the controversial materials under the spotlight in the push for more responsible sourcing.
Energy Storage
The need for robust innovations in energy storage remains a key trend for renewables, with lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and hydro-based innovations leading research.
Carbon
Strategies for reduction and decarbonisation include GHG reporting, demand reduction, carbon capture and storage, liquified natural gas and low-carbon natural gas.
