Minerals, energy, and security: why is the Nordic region strategically at the centre? What key resources lie beneath our soil? What do we mean when we talk about self-sufficiency in critical minerals? And what happens if we leave technological development in the hands of China and Taiwan?
Join us for an interesting discussion at Suomi Areena
Saku Vuori, Director, Science and Innovations, Geological Survey of Finland will take part in the session and launch the report 'The Nordic Supply Potential of Critical Metals and Minerals for a Green Energy Transition 2.0'.
The report is supported by Nordic Innovation under the Sustainable Minerals program. It builds on the report from 2021 'The Nordic Supply Potential of Critical Metals and Minerals for a Green Energy Transition´, which explored the Nordic's potential as a sustainable supplier of the raw materials the world needs to become a low-carbon emission society. The new report will also include security matters such as defense technology needs.
