FY21 ACHIEVEMENTS
We are proud to share our environmental, social and corporate governance ('ESG') performance for 2021 and disclose our efforts towards a sustainable future.
Our ESG framework, which is designed to evolve and adapt to change, aligns with Global Reporting Initiative ('GRI') standards. Creating a socially and environmentally-responsible business to drive shareholder value is a continuous journey for any corporation and we strive to keep improving.
Neometals has made significant progress across its projects, all of which align with rising global demand for energy storage and electro mobility. In so doing, we are making significant progress towards helping to decarbonise the planet.
Corporately, Neometals has:
- Continued innovation in products and services with advances in its Vanadium Recovery Project ('VRP'), Lithium-ion battery ('LIB') Recycling and Barrambie Project as well as continued development of its ELi lithium processing intellectual property
- Demerged its upstream nickel business.
This removed an exploration and virgin extraction project from portfolio to consolidate focus on downstream recovery and recycling - Committed to Task Force on Financial Disclosure ('TCFD') alignment and set a range of measurable ESG targets for 2022
- Framed its Company values and included ESG parameters into policy development, role descriptions, skills analysis and hiring, performance and retention practices
- Primobius (Neometals' 50:50 joint venture) nominated for 14th German sustainability award
