TXF Editor, Jonathan Bell joined Deutsche Bank to discuss whether it's possible to transition to net zero whilst maintaining energy supplies needed to keep up the output of copper, steel and aluminium needed for turbines, solar panels and electric vehicles

How can we transition to net zero yet maintain energy supplies needed to keep up the output of copper, steel and aluminium needed for turbines, solar panels and electric vehicles? Hydrocarbons still dominate the energy commodity mix, but with demand for energy continuing to rise around the world as poorer economies come out of poverty and populations increase, where will the sheer scale of the renewable sources needed to replace oil, gas and coal come from?

Continuing the theme of sustainable finance from the previous episode of Trade Finance TV, Clarissa Dann, Editorial Director, Deutsche Bank AG and TXF Editor in Chief Jonathan Bell, where joined in the studio by two experts on commodities and commodity trade finance to discuss these questions.
