The war has created turmoil and sent power, gas, coal and oil prices through the roof. Will the world's dependence on fossil fuels increase – or will high prices accelerate investment in the energy transition?
Are we in the early stages of a sustained rise in commodity prices? And what does it mean for the US dollar? We posed these questions a year ago when robust global economic growth was driving commodity demand and the US dollar was starting to tip over from a 15-year high.

Gain flexible access to objective research within and across individual commodities — as well as the analysts driving it.
The spread of coronavirus around the world and the resultant disruption to raw material flows has already raised questions on globalisation and increased calls rather for greater regionalisation. Even before the outbreak, voices in Europe were lobbying for the creation of a ‘home grown’ electric vehicle chain – highlighting the inherent risks in relying on the likes of China, Korea and Japan for battery cells and other components.
Burkina Faso's in-power junta requested an additional 35% stake in West African Resources' Kiaka gold mine in late August. This comes as a wider initiative across West Africa to take greater ownership of the region's gold mines amid the 2025 price rally. The country's leaders have made updates to the mining code, including greater free-carried interest for the state, options to acquire additional…
To summarise the challenges mining companies face during project development, Wood Mackenzie has identified six broad categories. Although numerous other issues may arise, these categories offer a clear, high-level framework for understanding the key risks. By systematically managing them, companies can better navigate the complex realities of mining operations.
Will aluminium supply respond as demand falters?
PowerFlex joins Wood Mackenzie on this webinar replay to discuss important energy management tools and strategies for installing and operating EV charging solutions onsite.
In the recent Horizons Live session, our panel discussed what it would take to diversify copper supply from China – and why de-risking supply chains may be more about compromise than a complete decoupling.
Watch on demand as our panel answers questions on the challenges facing the steel industry from the growing supply demand to the collective global goal of achieving net zero by 2050.
With demand rocketing for precious minerals, to power EVs, batteries and solar panels, do we need to be exploring new frontiers to mine for more of them? This week we explore the geopolitical, economic and environmental impact of underwater mining.
The race is on in the exploration and development of transition resources required for global decarbonisation. However, the investment environment needs to be more conducive, and the establishment of fair and transparent fiscal policies could be the key, says Wood Mackenzie.
The most important driver of the zinc market in 2020 will be the performance of the world’s zinc smelting industry, according to Wood Mackenzie.
Chinese steel demand will likely peak this year at 890 million tonnes, a growth of 1.5%, according to Wood Mackenzie. With China responsible for half of global steel demand, Chinese government policy remains core to Wood Mackenzie’s view.
Decarbonising the steel and iron ore industry by 2050, in line with the Paris Climate Agreement, will require US$1.4 trillion of investment and revolution across every stage of the value chain. This presents an urgent challenge and enormous opportunity according to Wood Mackenzie’s latest Horizons research report, Pedal to the metal: Iron and steel’s $1.4 trillion shot at decarbonisation.
Decarbonisation efforts in the steel industry could hinder circularity of Zinc, warns new study
With the UK poised to withdraw from the European Union and the single market, the steel industry is bracing for change. In 2016, 80% of the UK's total steel imports came from the EU — so what will its exit mean for manufacturers as well as for consumers?
Can the environmental impact of electric car batteries be mitigated? Electric vehicle battery recycling offers a sustainable solution as EV markets grow.

Demand destruction and falling revenues leave some industry players at risk of financial distress.
In re-launching the ‘Clean Plate’ campaign in August last year, President Xi Jinping urged all of China to “maintain a sense of crisis about food security”. This is of course an important message in and of itself, given the huge amounts of energy, water and land involved in food production in China.
China’s next Five-Year Plan has some tough goals for the country’s steel industry. It goes beyond solving problems like overcapacity and improving domestic raw-material security, to making its operations greener. Can it be done? And in such a short timeframe?
The mining industry seems to be reticent about investing sufficient capital to develop future supply at the pace and scale demanded by the energy transition. Is time for a re-evaluation of risk and risk mitigation strategies?
