Metals make climate change mitigation possible – Citi Research

In a rapid electrification scenario, metals have the ability to bring about the reduction of close to 1 000 gigatonnes (Gt) of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050, Citi Research states in a note that examines the metals industry’s potential contribution to climate change mitigation over the next 30 years. Examined is the potential of the metals industry itself to develop methods to evaluate the relative climate impacts of 16 metals across the complex ­–steel, aluminium, copper, nickel, zinc, lead, gold, silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, lithium, cobalt, ferrochrome, vanadium and rare earths.
