While the exploitation of critical minerals aims to provide the raw materials essential to the production of renewable energy, the development of these projects must be consistent with the key principles of sustainable development required by the broad guidelines of the energy transition. What if the leaders of this transition really were the funders?
Guest experts will discuss current trends in ESG criteria for these projects and how these criteria are reflected in the key principles of sustainable finance. Where do the projects currently being developed in Quebec stand in relation to these major trends? Should these key principles be reflected in the public policies of the ministries responsible for these sectors?
This session will be offered in French and in English.
