In the first two parts in this series on critical minerals, we covered the basics - what they are, why they matter, and barriers for scaling. As we look to the future, the industry is taking shape. Decisions are looming on areas such as permitting, supply, and standardized regulations for new mines.

Thanks to Tim McDonnell at Semafor for highlighting our niche industry and the global support we provide to our tech and climate advocacy clients. It’s fascinating to see the simultaneous rise of journalists covering this space and the growing number of PR firms getting involved. Silverline has been committed to the clean energy transition for nearly two decades.

Attending Promixo US Power & Renewables results in dynamic exchange of ideas, strategies, and innovations aimed at shaping the future of the critical renewables and power landscape in North America that will set the scene for new partnerships and cutting-edge solutions. Silverline is a proud sponsor.

In order to reach 2050 climate goals to enable the clean energy transition and scale critical mineral mining in a sustainable way, the US will have to up it's game and increase international cooperation at the same time. A delicate dance.

Clean energy resilience refers to the ability of a community or region to maintain a reliable and sustainable energy supply even in the face of extreme weather events. Unlike traditional fossil fuel-dependent systems, clean energy infrastructure is inherently more resilient. Our climate change expert Brad Carl talks about ways the clean energy industry is responding.

At it’s core, the story of the clean energy transition is simple. It is the shift of the global economy from fossil fuels to instead run on carbon-free energy. It is a narrative with immense stakes. In this three-part series we will take a look Texas and the role it’s playing in the transition and possibly raising the stakes for those to follow.

Green hydrogen has emerged as a promising contender in the race to decarbonize our energy systems – including energy storage, heavy industry and hard to abate sectors, maritime shipping, and aviation. Now, it can be produced with zero greenhouse gas emissions.

From campaign trail promises to final enacted legislation, those of us in the energy community have been thrilled for the boost that the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has provided American business. As we look back on and celebrate the one-year anniversary of this landmark legislation, there are many milestones to acknowledge and many opportunities on the horizon. 

Led by our esteemed Silverline Advisory Council member, Peter Kelly-Detwiler, with participation from Silverline’s cleantech innovators network, “Chemistry for Cleantech: Unleashing the Power of the Periodic Table” guided webinar guests through the underlying chemistry and technology innovation driving the fight against climate change.
