Growth of base metals and rare earths mining is crucial to building out the renewables infrastructure required to meet the Paris climate goals. But we do not yet have green infrastructure that is self-sustaining in terms of emissions. Currently, carbon-intensive energy is needed to produce the green energy sources and green infrastructure that are crucial to the energy transition. The industry is also facing a mass lack of investment. Is it up to governments to step in and boost investment in the space? And could energy majors play a more active role in mining finance as they scramble to secure longer term offtake?
