Thematic scope

Copper plays a key role in the energy transition, infrastructure development and electromobility. Rising demand, limited supply and the decreasing availability of high-quality deposits mean that the market is at a turning point.Poland has a particularly important role in the European debate on copper – as one of the world’s largest producers of copper and silver, and as an important centre of processing and industrial expertise for the mining and metallurgical sectors.

Main themes:

  • Global demand for copper in energy and electromobility
  • Prices and market cycles
  • New extraction and processing projects
  • The position of Poland and KGHM in the global market
  • The role of copper in the energy transition and infrastructure development

Key questions:

  • Is the world facing a copper deficit?
  • How will prices and investment develop?
  • What role can Poland play in Europe’s raw material security?
  • Can Europe maintain its extraction and metallurgical capacity for the copper market?
