SusCritMat Short Course on Electric Mobility
9 April 2019 at 18:00 - 10 April 2019 at 18:00
At the course, participants experienced a short version of a SusCritMat training school, covering some typical SusCritMat training course modules. Participants will receive the supporting training material (presentations, short films, exercises). The course will cover several topics related to the sustainable management of Critical Raw Materials across the value chain with the case of electric mobility, focusing especially on Cobalt and Lithium for EV batteries: theory and criticality assessment with Co and Li as a hands-on case, primary and secondary sourcing of Co and Li, future demand scenarios, sustainability assessment of electric cars, geopolitical aspects and certification potentials of Co and Li.
Teachers include amongst others Prof Ester van der Voet, University of Leiden, Prof David Peck, TU Delft, Prof Steven Young, University of Waterloo, and Gus Gunn, British Geological Survey.
On the evening of 9 April, SusCritMat will offer a “gaming night” in the pub “The Old Bicycle Shop” with the SusCritMat trainers and game developer Katie Whalen where we play the “In the Loop Game” on CRMs and the circular economy – free drinks and snacks included!
