Visualizing the decline of copper usage in EVs
Copper content in EVs has steadily decreased over the past decade, even as overall copper demand rises due to the increasing adoption of EVs.
Commodity trader Trafigura plans to name Richard Holtum as its new chief executive as soon as next week, the Financial Times reported on Friday, citing people briefed about the matter.
Holtum, a former British military officer, has seen a rapid rise at Trafigura since he joined from Glencore in 2014. He currently runs Trafigura’s gas, power and renewables division.
A Trafigura spokesperson declined to comment on the appointment.
Reuters exclusively reported in April that CEO Jeremy Weir was priming Richard Holtum to take over when he step back into a chairman role.
