A year of war but also a year of progress in green technologies

2022 will be remembered as the year Russia invaded Ukraine and the world focused on high energy prices.

The EU is accelerating the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The war has also highlighted Europe’s dependency on metals critical for the green transition.
