Securing technology-critical metals for Britain

This dataset contains information on large key industries that will be dependent on technology-critical metals, for example, cobalt and lithium for the batteries in electric vehicles and rare earths used in the magnets for electric motors and wind turbines.

The data will be of value to all those interested in understanding the critical materials demands for large industrial sectors and how they will evolve over time.
