Mining + Metals

More than £7bn is committed to UK batteries, but serious supply-chain gaps persist. Refining, factory delays and 2035 demand could test the sector’s next phase.

EnerVenue is scaling battery production in China. Its 30-year nickel-hydrogen technology promises lower lifetime costs, but commercial performance remains unproven.

Peru targets more than $7 billion in 2026 mining investment, but new permits alone do not guarantee the spending or construction that follows them.

Green steel is emerging, but buyers and producers are often far apart. RMI’s book-and-claim model could connect demand with cleaner production without delivery.

Amazon is testing lower-carbon aluminum in Ohio data center cabling. The project could gauge whether cleaner materials can scale across hyperscale construction.

A utility line strike can trigger far more than repair costs. CGA estimates underground utility damage costs the U.S. economy $83.2 billion per year nationwide.

AI workloads are pushing rack power to new extremes. That shift is making 800V DC a bigger part of data center design, cost and infrastructure planning.

R3 Lithium has started operations at its Covington, Georgia, recycling plant. The site will now recover lithium carbonate from used batteries and scrap locally.

White Pine Copper's pre-feasibility study outlines a $905.5 million Michigan mine project. Permits, financing and a 2027 investment decision remain ahead.

Noria Energy is bringing single-axis tracking to floating solar with Airon. The system aims to deliver more output from the same project footprint on the water.

Peabody moved Wyoming coal to Vietnam through Mexico's Port of Guaymas, testing a Pacific export route that still lacks disclosed costs or contracts.

Researchers are testing a process that turns arsenic mine waste into high-purity metal. It could limit cleanup risks while creating a fresh source for industry.

Electric vessels can arrive before ports are ready to power them. Tidal Transit is testing mobile battery storage to close that charging gap as local grids lag.

Ten-Nine is scaling its TENIX battery additive for commercial use. The material aims to extend cell life and reduce heat without redesigning batteries.

A DFARS rule expanding to cover the entire magnet supply chain collides with the possible expiration of China's export controls just weeks earlier.

Aptera’s solar EV generated more than 4 kWh of usable energy in independent daily testing. Results suggest 40-plus miles of solar range in favorable conditions.

Nevada is aligning state and federal infrastructure permitting under FAST-41, testing whether coordinated schedules can reduce project execution uncertainty.

NMR measurements reveal how heat and current interact inside a resistive switch. The findings could guide more predictable designs for emerging electronics.

Enphase is taking its microinverter model into commercial storage. The IQ Battery C80 scales to 2 MWh for solar, demand management and grid programs nationwide.

Federal regulators rejected Montana's attempt to change how legal costs can be awarded in coal mining disputes under the state's SMCRA program.
