Hospodářské noviny | More than five million people will need to be retrained in the Czech Republic by 2030. Car industry will mainly face the problems

The Czech car industry is lagging behind the rest of Europe and the world. It may not be able to pick what to produce, but it has the opportunity to strengthen its competitiveness and resilience. However, it needs trained and educated employees, which are hard to find on the local labour market. So are we going to train the automotive workforce, strengthen the position of our strategic sector and promote a just transformation? Or are we going to continue to say that the transition to electric mobility does not concern us and that the Green Deal for Europe is to blame for increased unemployment? How to produce electric cars and remain competitive? Rebeka Hengalová, a researcher at EUROPEUM Institute, discusses this topic in her article for economic daily Hospodářské noviny.

Policy Paper | Securing Europe’s Lithium Future: The Cinovec project and sustainable lithium mining

The EU's proactive stance, introduced in the Critical Raw Material Strategy and later Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA), drives the EU approach to secure the supply of European/domestic critical raw materials for EV battery production. The Cinovec project has a large economic potential as it enhances the ability to secure domestic and regional supply of lithium, which is otherwise very geographically concentrated outside of Europe. Europe relies on a handful of countries, particularly China, for the import of lithium for the production of EV batteries.

Policy paper | Zajištění lithiové budoucnosti Evropy: Projekt Cinovec a udržitelná těžba lithia

Proaktivní postoj EU, který představila ve strategii pro kritické suroviny a později v aktu o kritických surovinách (Critical Raw Materials Act - CRMA), je hnací silou přístupu Unie k zajištění dodávek těchto surovin pro výrobu baterií pro elektromobily. Projekt Cínovec má v Česku velký ekonomický potenciál, protože zvyšuje schopnost zajistit domácí a regionální dodávky lithia, které jsou jinak geograficky koncentrované mimo Evropu. Ta je na dovozu lithia pro výrobu baterií pro elektromobily závislá na několika málo zemích, zejména na Číně.
