⚡⚡ Encouraging words on the future of direct #electrification in Europe by Commissioner @KadriSimson at today’s Electrification Alliance event at the @AudiOfficial #EV factory in Brussels 🧵

ICA members use decarbonized electricity to reduce Scope 1 & 2 emissions from global #copper production. ⚡ Swipe to see how they are taking action. ⬇️ Read Copper—The Pathway to Net Zero for more on the collaborative goal for #NetZeroCopper by 2050.

Great gathering of the #Copper industry at the Copper Club dinner in New York, celebrating the granting of scholarships to excellent students who decided to embrace a career in this fantastic, future-proof, responsible industry.

Director-General Kerstin Jorna @JornaKerstin underlying the importance of raw materials for a climate neutral Europe at the EIT #RMSummit2023. The Critical Raw Materials Act is a bold move ahead: it also deals with national matters like permitting of raw material assets.

Happy to attend the EIT Raw Materials Summit and hear MEP Hildegard Bentele support the Critical Raw Materials Act and emphasize the need for regulatory coherence to make it work. #RMSummit2023 @hildebentele @EITRawMaterials

Great to hear Kerstin Jorna, DG GROW, highlighting the strategic role of #copper for the energy transition and the need to strengthen the business case for mining, smelting and refining of raw materials in EU #RePowerEU #NetZeroCopper #RawMaterialAct

Strong net zero commitment and clear decarbonisation pathway for @thinkcopper members 👏 All details on copperpathwaytozero.org #NetZeroCopper #ClimateAction #copper

Thank you to everyone who attended ICA’s event today, helping to launch the decarbonization roadmap: Copper—The Pathway to Net Zero! Find out more about the discussion and learn more about the steps ICA and its members are taking toward #NetZeroCopper: copperpathwaytozero.org

ICA and its members’ decarbonization roadmap is here: Copper—The Pathway to Net Zero! Across the world, the shift to a carbon neutral planet has begun. Now, the industry that helps other sectors decarbonize is going net zero itself. Learn more. #NetZeroCopper 👇

Happy New Year! The future is bright if we believe in it, together! #future #europe #development

In this year 2023, which will be full of challenges, let us all strive to work together towards wise, collaborative solutions to 1/the transition to climate neutrality, 2/ a durable concept of security and stability in Europe, 3/ equitable economic and social development.

From its high electrical and thermal conductivity to its applications for clean energy, #copper is extremely versatile. @ThinkCopperEU’s Chief Executive, @BernardRespaut, spoke to @WoodMackenzie about how copper is a key component in a #zerocarbon economy. Check it out:

The current economic conditions, linked to the pandemic and geopolitical tensions drive energy prices up. But even more underline the importance to accelerate the clean #EnergyTransition, creating opportunities for economic growth and reducing energy insecurity. #CRUCopperAsia

Energy efficiency can deliver more than 40 percent of the Paris Agreement, but implementation at the scale needed to double #EnergyEfficiency by 2030 and reach #NetZero emissions faces unique challenges. Read ICA’s reflections from its Concordia Annual Summit roundtable below!

Responsible production requires monitoring and reducing GHG emissions in the production process. Focusing on action solutions at #COP27, ICA has developed guidance to provide a harmonized and consistent approach to measuring the carbon footprint of copper. Read more!

Today I spoke at “Present and future of Copper and the energy transition” #Copper2022 session. Copper is essential to the transition to climate neutrality. Faster permitting & incentives for more recycling are what policymakers, industry and civil society need to work together.

🎙 On our latest #WMHorizons podcast episode, @LizMPD is joined by @BernardRespaut of @ThinkCopperEU & WoodMac's Nick Pickens, to discuss Copper’s critical role in achieving #netzero. Listen to the full episode now: okt.to/ThIU4N

At #COP27 #SIF22 — #copper is essential to the transition to climate neutrality, which triggers a challenge for the industry to meet the demand. Faster permitting & incentives for more recycling is what policymakers, industry & civil society need to collaborate upon, urgently.

Join me this afternoon at #COP27 Sustainable Innovation Forum ‘Placing innovation and investment at the heart of COP27 to accelerate the pathway to net zero and achieve a just transition’ #SIF22 #HTS22 #InnovationZone @climate_action_ ℹ️ events.climateaction.org/sustainable-in…
