GREENPEG International Conference

25 April, 2023 - 26 April, 2023

GREENPEG International Conference will be held 25-26 April 2023 at Uppsala Universitet Main Building, Lecture Hall X

Sourcing the European energy transition from domestic raw materials resources – vision or wishful thinking?

This one-day conference on 25th of April questions Europe’s raw materials supply security in the context of its economically viable raw material potential and of current geopolitics. It examines the existing and future framework conditions for mining projects and their downstream value chain. The question arises, which course do we follow? The conference also focuses on the work of the European Geological Surveys for the territorial mapping of critical raw materials and highlights the potential for cooperation with Africa. On April 26th, a site visit is offered by United Lithium Corp. to Bergby Lake Lithium exploration project. Sweden currently holds the EU Council Presidency for the first half of 2023. Sweden is one of the most important mining countries in Europe with great raw material potential for managing the energy and mobility transition and securing the raw material supply for future technologies. The conference is hosted by the EU HORIZON 2020 project GREENPEG, in cooperation with the Swedish Mining Association SVEMIN and the European Technology Platform on Sustainable Mineral Resources (ETP SMR) and will take place in picturesque city of Uppsala, 20 minutes by train from Stockholm Airport.
