Evoluzioni della KIC Raw Material verso Horizon Europe e le reti di innovazioni europee Raw Materials in Italia e nel contesto europeo
Raw materials challenges in Europe: Import reliance for selected raw materials
reproduced from: Raw Materials Scoreboard 2017, EC
JRC elaboration, based on data from the EC, 2017, ‘Study on the review of the list of Critical Raw Materials’. Import reliance is computed at the "extraction" stage, with the exception of Sb, Nb, Pt, V, Sn and Cr, for which the calculation is carried out at the metallurgy stage (see methodological notes).
Raw materials and advanced materials are THE key enablers for the transition in the energy and mobility sectors. Challenge vs. Opportunity
