About us
Based in Brussels, the International Copper Association (ICA) Europe is the leading advocate for the copper industry in Europe. With 32 members globally, ICA represents more than half of the world’s copper production and most of the EU’s production. As ICA’s European branch, the organization represents companies that mine, smelt and recycle copper for use across the economy, in the electricity system, buildings, transport and industry. Through a team of policy, industry and scientific experts, ICA Europe promotes copper as an essential material for achieving the EU’s ambition of a resilient, climate neutral Europe, and seeks to ensure that EU policies enable the sustainable production of copper to serve Europe’s future needs. ICA Europe also serves as the secretariat of the REACH Copper Consortium, which provides a coordinated answer to EU requirements on chemicals registration, evaluation and authorization.

Thanks to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity #copper is used across the electricity system and for heat exchange, including applications such as windmills, power grids, solar panels, electric vehicles, charging infrastructure, building automation, energy storage, solar thermal, wastewater heat recovery, heat pumps, batteries and many more. Overall, copper-enabled decarbonising technologies can abate approximately 75% of the EU GHG emissions. Copper also contributes to resource efficiency as a carrier metal, facilitating the recovery of many other valuable metals needed for the energy transition such as silver, gold, platinum and palladium. Copper, therefore, plays a crucial role in the transition to a climate-neutral, resilient European economy. #EnergyTransition #StrategicRawMaterial #EUGreenDeal #FitFor55 #WindPower #SolarPower #HeatPumps #ElectricVehicles #Copper #renewables #Electrification #EuropeanIndustry #RawMaterials #NetZeroCopper Anna-Maria Karjalainen Ignacio Gentiluomo Electrification Alliance Robert Pintér Fernando Nuño Diego Garcia Carvajal Diedert Debusscher Salvatore Ricci

International Copper Association Europe reposted this
As the Financial Times notes, copper is critical for human progress and this is more evident than ever before amid today’s energy transition. Manufacturers are recognizing copper’s critical role in decarbonization and meeting 2050 net-zero goals, creating direct deals between copper suppliers and end users like carmakers and utilities. Research commissioned by the International Copper Association, reveals copper’s future market share will be defined by regional trends and the green energy transition, which are expected to help drive copper demand from 28.3 million tonnes in 2020 to 40.9 million tonnes in 2040. As the “metal of electrification,” copper is essential for the green technologies that will power a cleaner world. These end users recognize that its superior conductivity, reliability, and recyclability that has long made copper a catalyst for progress makes it the best material to power the energy transition today. International Copper Association is proud of our work with members to promote, protect, and defend copper markets and demand. We encourage partnerships, and advocate for supportive policies that allow for continued innovation and progress. At International Copper Association, we’ve worked to highlight copper’s impact on developing a low-carbon economy, creating partnerships in the clean energy sector with governments and NGOs. Recently, this work contributed to India’s recognition of copper as a critical mineral and elimination of customs duties on copper concentrate and blister imports. While there is enough copper in the earth and on the ground to meet this critical moment, meeting demand must start with an inclusive approach to supportive policies, faster permitting, innovative technologies, and partnership with industry, as well as the understanding that copper is key for human development.
