Critical minerals, policy, and the energy transition

The Energy Transition in Georgia

Georgia is emerging as an important player in the energy transition, strategically leveraging its position as a critical transit hub between Europe and Asia. The country's energy mix includes a significant reliance on hydropower and natural gas, with growing investments in renewable sources to reduce emissions and increase energy security. Georgia is also rich in critical minerals, including copper, manganese, and rare earth elements, which are essential for global clean energy technologies. These mineral resources, alongside its favourable geographic location, enhance Georgia’s role in regional energy geopolitics, making it a key part of energy supply chains. As the country integrates ESG policies into its development plans, it is positioning itself to meet both environmental and economic objectives while contributing to Europe’s energy and mineral needs. The development of its mineral extraction and processing industries is vital for meeting regional demand for critical raw materials. Furthermore, Georgia’s participation in international economic and trade alliances, such as the WTO and the Eastern Partnership (EaP), strengthens its geopolitical standing and offers opportunities for increased foreign investment. With a focus on sustainable growth and regional collaboration, Georgia is positioning itself to be a reliable partner in critical mineral supply chains.
