PLG Consulting publishes the 5th edition of the popular “What To Know” series entitled, “The Complex Bulk Supply Chain of Energy Transition Materials”. The report shares insights into the evolving and complex bulk supply chain that supports energy transition materials (ETM).  The energy transition materials (ETM) bulk supply chain refers to the process of sourcing, transporting, and distributing energy transition minerals, metals, their reagents, and the co-products on a large scale. ETMs are critical components in the transition to clean and renewable energy, including battery metals (such as lithium, cobalt, & nickel), rare earth elements, and solar materials. The bulk supply chain of these materials is complex and involves multiple players, including mining companies, refineries, manufacturers, distributors, and recyclers.
