Launch of UT-led 2.7M project on critical resources and clean energyIt is predicted that to meet the demands from the energy transition and related green technologies, the current global supply of critical minerals will have to quadruple by 2040. Yet this simply cannot be achieved with current and projected new technologies in recycling. Novel and cost-effective solutions are required to accelerate and resource the energy transition. Launched this week, the EU-funded Doctoral Network, led by Assoc. Prof. Juan Carlos Afonso in the Department of Applied Earth Sciences, will support 10 research projects to develop a network for unveiling Earth's critical resources for clean energy and a sustainable future: EarthSafe.Read more
