Demand for cobalt, lithium and copper for energy storage batteries, batteries for electric vehicles but also wind turbines and solar panels is exploding. The ecological transition is changing us from a dependence on hydrocarbons to a dependence on metals necessary to generate, transport and store electricity. It is not only electric vehicle batteries that consume these metals, but the whole range of electricity generators, particularly those for climatic electricity, but also interconnections, and finally batteries.
