Description

This contract will determine the risks and opportunities of the UK's 2050 dependencies on China's clean energy supply chains through illustrative scenarios where the UK is more, the same or less reliant on China vs. today. This refers to the trade along the length of these supply chains, from critical minerals, refined materials, components and the final manufactured clean technology. For example, the raw lithium ore to refined lithium carbonate, to cathodes and the final battery used in an electric vehicle. This will help identify which sectors present the largest risks/opportunities for the UK, the implications for the global energy transition.
