Part of President Biden’s sweeping $2 trillion infrastructure legislation looks to rebuild the nation’s power and transportation markets as well as the country’s semiconductor industry. This follows Biden signing an executive order in February designed to review gaps in the domestic supply chains for rare earths, medical devices, chips and other key resources. These efforts will require domestic mining and production of rare earth elements.
In March, the Department of Energy announced a $30 million initiative that will tap into researching and securing the U.S. domestic supply chain for rare earths and other important minerals in battery-making such as cobalt and lithium.
The new U.S. plan to rival China and end cornering of market in rare earth metals
The United States has made previous attempts to reemerge as a dominant player in a rare earths supply chain that is responsible for some of the most important materials involved in electric vehicle production, battery making, renewable energy systems and technology manufacturing. Under the Biden administration, the effort is receiving renewed focus, with massive investments planned in climate change technology and a hard line being taken on geopolitical rivalries and the national security threat posed by China.
