Nickel is set to become one of the most important critical minerals in the net zero transition, reaching a predicted global market of almost US$60bn within 5 years. Future industry growth will be driven by the dramatic increase in demand for lithium-ion EV batteries – of which nickel is a key component. Given the exponential growth in demand, there is still a high risk that supply will fall short in the coming decade.
China’s efforts to encourage businesses to cut emissions and improve carbon data transparency are critical to achieving a sustainable future.

Within the European Union (EU), subsidies granted to companies by EU Member States are subject to tight control by the European Commission to ensure that such government support does not distort competition. However, EU state aid law is only applicable to EU Member States and does not apply to subsidies granted by non-EU-countries (foreign subsidies). To close this enforcement gap, the EU has now adopted its new Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 on Foreign Subsidies Distorting the Internal Market (EU Foreign Subsidies Regulation or FSR)[1].
