the rages people are trying to stem of the turkish governments, all sorts of gibs. but only if the crime is addressed in the power of attorney to take responsibility for his actions . the guardians of trees starts october 28th on d. w. the, the sustainable, equal conscious, green walk into any store on your bound to hear or read these words. business has become all about being green that includes brands and consumers. but as everything really is green, as it may seem, for example,

our lithium batteries for electric vehicles, i'm sure or curse for the environment. that's the topic of this week's edition of made use business magazine. i mother xena. welcome. and these are some of the other stories we will be looking at. making waves, how denmark is heating a city with the ocean, making a come back, kind of former spanish coal town, become a hydrogen hub and making it minimal our tiny house of the solution to our problems . or it's the white gold of the energy transition. lithium. that's because the lift him is a crucial ingredient for rechargeable batteries. specifically for those sound and electric vehicles, around 8 kilograms of lift him are needed for midsize the electric car. and as the e sector gather speed. so the demand for the metal, lithium exporters like truly are scrambling to me to offers. business is booming, but how sustainable is the trade around sustainability?
4:32 am
a lithium is essential to electric vehicle batteries. the global run on this raw material is well underway. the global north. it's asking the make the effort, resources and directions to the cardboard they're highly coveted. but is that really true? is the shift to e mobility coming at the expense of the global south? and why does chile want to bring its lithium companies under state control? in latin america, lithium is extracted from underground fines. the process is straightforward and profitable. the salt rich water is come to the surface and large ponds, where it evaporates in the sun that can take up to 2 years. the salt water is in filter to extract the lithium a basic component in battery production. there's more than enough lithium in the world. the world's largest lithium reserves are in bolivia, argentina,
4:33 am
and she'll weigh the lithium triangle. 53 percent of all deposits are located there . when it comes to lithium extraction, australia leads the way in 2022. it mind around $61000.00 tons. follow by to a china and argentina around 130000 tons of lithium were produced globally at home. but that's not nearly enough. by 2028 will need 8 times as much lithium, mainly for rechargeable batteries, in smartphones, laptops and wind turbines. not to mention the vehicles a single mid size european car needs about 7 to 8 kilos. lithium goes into the battery, which stretches nearly the length of the chassis. it's what allows the battery to charge and discharge without lift the there's no electricity flow and
4:34 am
the current one drives. the advantage of leasing them is that it's really light and also has a small volume. this means step with the leasing better rece. we can really build power full and small and low weight, betral res, as compared to other electro chemical elements. chilly for it's part wants to raise a share of the mobility boom. in late april chili's president announced his new national lithium strategy. he wants the country to not only extract olivia, but to process it. and he wants to put lithium production under state control. if you middle with a fellow but 60, by the 1st, the state will participate in the entire production cycle of this monroe by establishing a national lithium company. and 2nd, what's the exploration? the expectation and value adding efforts will be based on the principle of public private partnership. also, we hope you are. but what exactly does that mean?
4:35 am
and sheila, all mineral deposits are owned by the state. and nearly always, it is extracted by 2 of the world's largest lithium companies, s q m. 's lease runs out in 2030 while us own all the models runs until 2043. afterwards the state will receive a majority stake in all new contracts under president bar, which is proposed policy. historically, most of july's lithium has been processed elsewhere, mainly in china. china is the world's biggest with the importer and also the 2nd largest ex border. the asian country dominates the refining industry and lithium ion battery manufacturing. it's by far the leader accounting for 79 percent of lithium ion battery production capacity worldwide, followed by the us congress and poland. how realistic is it for a country like chile to develop its own production industry,
4:36 am
given that it's competing against the big players on the battery market like china's c h e l. the theory, if you could build out a supply chain in shelly, you know, cathode and, and production battery production. perhaps even the next vehicle production. but you know, the largest e v markets in the world or the, you and china. and they are also building out their own supply chains and capacity . so chile would probably be competing to try to export any, any manufacturing into those very credit and very competitive market. so no, i don't think it would work. so as to like, going to be relegated to a supplier of raw materials for the big global carbon emitters. we're now looking to meet their climate goals, places like china, the us and the you. the varies uh, really dividing line incomplete in this world drive towards the global new station
4:37 am
. because the global north is asking the global south to make the effort to deepen resource extraction in order to the cardboard nice. they're highly card when a meeting you come. and the golf outside, so i can have, you know, more investment private investments. i can have more fun than i can have more state resources in 2020 some 10000000 e. b 's were on the road worldwide by 2025. that figure is set to be nearly $80000000.00. sheila wants to expand lithium production to new regions while doing more to help protect the environment. until recently, the extraction in the country has been limited to the audit comma salt site region . it's the world's largest lithium reserve extracting the commodity from brian
4:38 am
emits comparatively little c o 2. but it does consume huge amounts of water and that's depleting. vital ground water supplies. wetlands are being drained and delicate eco systems are at risk. chile has pledged to protect 30 percent of its land in marine territory by 2030 and to look for new techniques for lithium extraction. and maybe i will kind of make ideas to look for more modern methods, such as direct extraction of lithium. you need to reduce the use of water now and for the state to provide communities with a more active role so that they can also share and as well. so like indigenous communities. for example, if i'm keeping one of my, they probably guess only i in beacon on a of the problem is that new techniques are not yet being used commercially. and it's unclear when they'll be ready for use. but one thing is clear,
4:39 am
e mobility is booming and shield a hoops to profit from the trend. but it's not clear what will be chillies, priority, maximizing, state profits or protecting the environment or whether the government manages to find a good balance between the 2. european countries are locked in a race race to bits orland gas to heat their homes and denmark, those leading the way the danish city on the north sea swapping fossil fuels with the ocean. 100000 inhabitants will soon keep their homes with sea water. that's thanks to a heat pump developed by a german business. what is the project a drop in the bucket, or a scalable solution? this is the new we'll see in the future. this will be with the danish city of espia . sophie is its energy. sieboldt will be pumped by underground pipelines to the utility companies plant at about 14000 cubic meters,
4:40 am
an hour here that just completing the assembly of a huge heat pump manufactured by m a n energy solutions. wind will generate the electricity needed to run the system that will provide the city with heat. heat exchanges transfer about 2 to 3 degrees celsius of well from the sea water. ultimately, the water inside the city's district heating network is heated up to a temperature of 90 degrees. liquid carbon dioxide circulating in the heat pump is warmed up by the sea. water vapor noise is the c o 2 is being compressed. further increasing its temperature. wind farms of the danish coast provide the power to operate the compresses. limits of the service in the city, especially on the hop on wind turbines. so you can say this projects with using a lot of electricity, windows and excess electricity helps us integrate more renewable into the, to the grid. it also enables us to provide c, p,
4:41 am
so our customers with dell costs also heavy above. so this is something this, in the sense that the heat we produce when they make frequencies very cheap when we have a lot of wind, then the prices here fall till close to 0. the project was this mom's idea. the foundation in denmark is that we have a district key thing system. so that was already uh, the connection in the city. we can produce the heat at one place and distribute it to the, to the houses all over the city. i think this is a very, very big explanation on why denmark is on the full front uh on the screen from system up to now, s p a and it's a 100000 residents. upward light. when a coal fired power plant now is district peace supply is going to run of green energy. so we got to the locals, think it's good furniture can exclude from foss. oh, that's good. you like that?
4:42 am
yeah, of course. as long as it's an environmental good, we should the big our, our traditional meat of because the all that this is that this might meeting about just a great dream agenda is a, is a, is a big problem. yeah. but actually implementing the project was not without its challenges. and there's always a lot of, uh, authorities that has to move into the when you do a big installations, big constructions button in generally we have this heating the law, which is almost 40 years old in denmark saying that these, the district key thing systems, the money has to be used internally, do kind of get profit out of it's very environmental obstacles under projects. we are here at the and that is probably we actually very close to
4:43 am
a nature 2000 area. we've got a unit squared habits. it's area. and when we started talking about us, see was a based heat pump, we actually can send you a hard, he's didn't really take that much interest in the machine itself. but they were very most interesting what, what happens with the civil and especially if that was a leak, it's all contamination of to see what's on with refrigerants. and this, we spend an enormous amount of time figuring out in the meantime, those concerns have been addressed. and all parties involved hoping that the heat pump system can go into operation this full city is reinventing themselves to go green. that's not just happening in denmark and the spanish city of perhaps a yano dreams of an emission free future are also being born. perhaps we all know used to be a hot spot for coal mining. then for chemical production today it's changing course . it wants to become your biggest hub for green hydrogen renewable is being held as
4:44 am
a miracle ingredient. and the energy transition. planes, industry and cars are meant to go green with hydrogen. we had a closer look at the small city with big goals, or this innocuous looking site is home to a groundbreaking project after coal and oil shale. now, natural gas and mineral oil are also set to be displaced by green hydrogen. but there's still a long road ahead as the undertaking is only just beginning right here in this fertilizer factory. what can be the final is hydrogen is shatelle producing another vehicle and not in the commercial ingredient manufacturing on the lines that we sell different levels. so i'm putting this past a single furnace. currently, it needs natural gas to create the $40000.00 tons of hydrogen a year needed in puerto yano, in a climate and friendly process. got the nickel group with every ton of ammonia,
4:45 am
generates the natural gas. we have made to metric tons of c o 2 green hydrogen is generated using solar power and with 0 fossil energy. but the $3000.00 tons, now produce per year is less than a 10th of the amount required. what's happening to this is the biggest kind of its kind in euro to bring it down to product facility for an alliance between the bed or 50 bed. yeah. like the idea idea is supposed to go from 20 megawatts in to $800.00 and total input to yano impala fontana. we have to have the ability as factory just ended. spain is turning into a hydrogen hub, as can be seen at the national hydrogen center. also located from port to yano. the boom is no coincidence. explains the director programs get state backing that me able to talk a little, but just thought there's also funding for the projects in the u. u. i, which is speeding things up. low proficiency has certainly more or less we have a lot of renewable energy in spain, we know, darling and then another geographical advantage when it comes to the energy
4:46 am
transmission. while the set equal anybody to go out and buy new over the next 2 years, spain is that to build more wind and solar power facilities, with a total capacity of $35.00 gigawatts. the equivalent of $25.00 nuclear power plants . but together with the plans for green hydrogen, that goal has also attracted criticism. it's good, but it's one of those. of course it can be a good solution for all the industries that have no other options here. and this development in spain is a real bubble in many cases, unnecessary discretion. and it leads to conflict with residents and many parts of the country. and we bought a campus in the 7030 s more hydrogen requires more water. the facility and porter yano uses at least 9 leaders of h 2 o to produce one key low of green hydrogen. and this is in the drought stricken south of spain. when i lost the limits, one guy i'm a is whether we'll have enough water for everything. i mean, not just now, but in the future. how can i speak and according to forecasts that are climate change will mean it's
4:47 am
a 20 percent less motoring the decades to come. i think that for the engineers and researchers at the national hydrogen center and the water is not a problem the, you know, i mean to levels they kick on fields that we expect to be able to cover your entire hydrogen demand uh 2030 on and by producing 852818 1000000 cubic meters is not the same quantity that evaporates in spain alone every year from agricultural navigation on those and think that with the range of options available, fertilizer company therapy barrier is already thinking a step ahead of time when we want to increase our capacities in order to harness the opportunities with green hydrogen on ammonia as a new energy sources and to cater to the new market. ash involved medical meaning that fertilizer make are fair to betty a intends to add clean energy to its product range. and there will be no shortage of customers in spain alone. existing refineries and still work need green hydrogen
4:48 am
in the hundreds of thousands of tons per year with other new industries. now also joining them. there are plans for a new hydrogen powered still works here. importantly, yano itself. a town that might soon come to symbolize the transition from coal and middle, while the hydrogen moving on from down those big emissions to more moto, straightens existing, as little space as possible. that's what living in a city feels like. for many, often there is no other choice, but recently embracing minimal living is gaining popularity. it's the idea behind so called tiny houses, the many homes bend from 8 to 50 square meters. they are cheap, practical, and said to be sustainable. there minimalism is meant to solve big problems from housing shortages to wasting resources. but it's less, really more there is a global housing shortage right now. people are feverish me trying to find
4:49 am
solutions, tiny houses, and just small. they also have the potential to be practical, green and affordable, and they're growing in popularity. as a button, as a 1st time home, i don't want to shut out 1200 years a month or an a pop mendelson. it's very snow, but i think we carry too much around with us anyway. but the problem is where to put them. there aren't many sites housing. so if it is an oven problem, not a rural one. the so 10 tiny house is also any relief to crowded city. is there even space for them in all concrete jungles? as was on definitely more fun, but we might be able to accommodate tony houses in the gardens or cold yards yet some particularly urban areas for the housing shortage inside the house on the thing that might help alleviate this thing is a little difficult, but he won't chuckle, a huge problem that we're facing. the gun difficulty named us. we had caught the it
4:50 am
would ease things in an extremely marginal way. he might have pets when shop pets. actually, philadelphia there are often many vacant lot step boom. and you can use a crane to hoist them into the ice and fill the empty space in cities. you have done either or all fall. no, you can also order the same story. muscles match for the stand. it's a few chess when you take an offer. i lost it mike crow apartment type cities should design the apartment through some beating tiny houses in the form of money to boots. that can be constantly adapted. environmentally friendly, mobile waste. for simple tracing systems, there are a constant stream of innovations that claim to reduce the carbon footprint of tiny houses. but it's small, really sustainable, tiny, oldest diesel and mark on the bottom available. commercially available, tiny houses use up 7 times more energy per person for one minute useful. if it was on a 2nd floor that needs to be considered, is that
4:51 am
a tiny house set on the needs quite a lot of space on also on the timing goals, you don't cut as you can imagine. if i build a lot of small buildings, then it takes up a lot of space for it was up to 101 commission. but whereas if i construct an apartment building almost like a house, a lot more people like with a much smaller plot of land, kind of, you know, the issue is definitely i mentioned something about the tiny house movement is about more than just addressing housing shortages. it's a lifestyle loan that is about owning less, as well as enjoying more freedom of the mind. if i want to live on the bolting coast, i'm more of the mortgage just to touch a hitch and head off with a thing that any one of us things like that or an extra ford could serve as an inspiration to, for a tiny house construction sustainability is also a big buzzword in the ation industry and plains. there's too much carrots and for example, they are retired. but where do they go?
4:52 am
usually they rode on so called plane graveyards, not very sustainable. and business an ireland wants to change that. it's turning carpets into garden sheds, and play and cabins, and to offices because of all and is known for its unpredictable west. one minute it's sunny. the next. it's raining. anyone wanting to watch the waves and needs to wrap up the pool or find shelter in one of these up cycles applied section the science level and the last the site they can still appear on the bank. they're looking at it at that to see they can watch people surfing, they can watch people's funding, and there's just none here and the comfort of this, the sand house to tell them don't the going on, is the problem. oh, no, to full my across cabins. by the see here, everything was the windows and the bathrooms. the doors handles everything. a rust so far with these are the things fantastic. you know no rust and no meant. and so
4:53 am
we think of very, very good investments there are acros, graveyards all over the world like this one and total space. the international ad transport association estimates that $700.00 planes go out to service every year. and the numbers rising, finding ways to reuse that thoughts is more important than ever. so you're going to strip it does change. so once and then kevin recognize the brains behind the so called error pods. they came up with the idea 2 years ago since then. they've towed more than that, the aircraft parts into god and sheds mobile offices and holiday homes. an error code costs between 20 and 45000 bureaus depending on its size and features. we're basically buying that on the last place. we bought the fuselage sale as soon as it lands we have one ordered so and everything else and the plan has been recycled and sent all over the world to to be read on the some of us going back into plans to be
4:54 am
flying again. and, and the likes of what we're doing here. we're basically use nearly easy percent of everything in the plan. someone's on the bottom doesn't show the rules and flow need more insulation into how it has to be re wyatt, special care there. sure. and what do you like on that side? the stuff up can even build a small house from our plane. pause in $2.00 to $3.00 weeks, including a kitchenette and the bathrooms. a tiny house in america in the states is huge and it's getting that we're to hear even, you know, people realize now that we can't build a big house just like we always did, we can't do it like, you know, you can't hate them. you know, you couldn't get signing permission up here to build muscle structure as so these were absolutely ideal, you know, during the winter and the biggest storm you can set them here. you don't hear a thing, no movement, no, and anything. the smaller the pulse, the easier they are to transport, making them all move out. that also makes them attractive for businesses attending
4:55 am
trade says the 2 company founders are looking to further upgrade the designs and recently hire their own architect. so we have a lot of interest from the corporate market now. so we've hired guys and come in and do all our new designs. so for the corporate in, for their offices or, and for people as doing expos in the future, they also hope to break into the why the european market. after world, the heating costs a high that to the coast in many areas, equally rough to reach our client goals, we have to rethink and reinvent, but which new developments are really a clauser cool and the which ones the sound like it green or green washing that was this week's topic on maid mother's enough. thank you for watching. take care and see you next time. the
