Copper, the lifeblood of modern infrastructure, is experiencing an unprecedented surge in demand. As a cornerstone for construction, defense, and the renewable energy sector, this "barometer of economic health" is at the epicenter of a global race to secure sufficient supply. But can mining companies meet the challenge, or is the world on the brink of a copper deficit that could derail the transition to renewable energy?
The green energy revolution is not just a fleeting trend; it's a full-fledged movement gaining momentum by the day. With projections indicating that global renewable capacity will hit an impressive 7,300GW by 2028, the push for cleaner energy is undeniable. However, as we strive for higher wind yields and seek to harness energy from distant sunny or windy regions, a new challenge arises: the increasing distance green energy must travel.
