In this Jan. 13, 2021, file photo a wind turbine is silhouetted against the rising sun Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2021, near Spearville, Kan.“The whole green energy agenda involves more than doubling 10 types of mining, and that has never happened in economic history in one industry.” — Alex Epstein, president, Center for Industrial Progress.
Epstein didn’t mention the year when the U.S. hopes to reach net-zero emissions or list any of the minerals mined for renewable energy technology. In the case of copper, global production would need to be increased by as much as five times from where it is now by 2050. Around 21 million tons of copper are mined annually. By 2050, it would need to rise to 60 million tons each year to meet the demands caused by economic, population and urbanization growth alone, Dunbar said. If 70 percent of the world’s electricity comes from renewable sources in 2050, 100 million tons of copper will be required.
To add 2 billion electric cars worldwide by 2050 would require more than 12 million tons of nickel, Dunbar said.from the International Energy Agency, which said the" energy transition requires substantial quantities of critical minerals" that would need to grow almost sevenfold between 2020 and 2030 to meet the 2050 net-zero goal.
