Finland has a Role in the EU Battery Mineral Value Chain Especially in Nickel and Cobalt
A new research report by Geological Survey of Finland GTK presents an assessment of Finland’s current and prospective contribution to the European battery value chain. It confirms that the country already supplies significant nickel and cobalt from mine to refinery and could broaden extraction and processing of several other critical minerals. Set against rising global competition for battery inputs, the report positions Finland as a substantive, strategically located source of raw materials essential for electric-vehicle and energy-storage technologies.
