Critical raw materials are vital for the digital and green transitions.

Their demand is expected to increase dramatically in the next years, and Europe is almost completely dependent on one country for them.

This week, the European Parliament and the Council of the EU reached a political agreement on our Critical Raw Materials Act.

With this Act, the EU should have the capacity to extract 10%, process 40%, and recycle 25% of its annual consumption of strategic raw materials by 2030.

@EU_Commission En wat gaan jullie doen om onderzoek naar alternatieven te stimuleren?
B.v. zoutwater accu's zouden de vraag naar Lithium drastisch kunnen verlagen

@EU_Commission if Lithium is so rare, why don't you ban single use vapes?

@EU_Commission the 25% of recycling is really ambitious, congratulations for placing such a high goal in such a near future.
