Clean tech supply chains are becoming a critical fault line in the energy transition, as regions look to secure access to the materials and technologies needed for low-carbon growth. Concentrated production of solar modules, battery inputs, and rare earth elements has triggered a wave of industrial strategies aimed at reshoring, friendshoring, and building regional self-sufficiency. While these efforts promise resilience and energy security, they also risk fuelling protectionist trade policies and fragmenting global cooperation. This roundtable will share cross-sector insights on how the industry is adapting to evolving supply dynamics and navigating the balance between national priorities and international collaboration.
