Raw materials now account for a significant and growing share of the total cost of clean energy technologies.
The physical scarcity of raw materials, or reserve life, is assessed via reserve-to-production (R/P) ratios that indicate relative abundance or scarcity. It provides insight on whether current reserves are sufficient to support consumption over a multidecade time frame.
Supply concentration risk is expressed by the categories High, Medium or Low. Another raw materials group that has high supply concentration is rare earth elements (REE), such as praseodymium and neodymium, of which approximately 80% is supplied by China. 10 REEs are used as catalysts and polishing powders in the specialty chemicals industry.
The dynamics in the supply of raw materials can greatly impact operating margins and sales, posing challenges for companies. This situation puts their earnings and enterprise value at risk, especially if they are unable to pass on costs to end users.
Energy storage technologies, which are based on natural principles and developed via rigorous academic study, are essential for sustainable energy solutions. Mechanical systems such as flywheel, pumped hydro, and compressed air storage rely on inertia and gravitational potential to store and release energy.
