Abstract: In order to meet the climate objectives set by the Paris Agreement, all countries will have to operate a dramatic structural change by replacing most fossil energy sources with renewable ones that are expected to be highly mineral intensive. This material intensity of the low-carbon transition may notably threaten different dimensions of the 2030 Agenda.In this paper, we provide a systematic review of the links between the mining territories that are essential for the energy transition and the sustainable development goals defined in 2015 by the United Nations. Since much of this demand for minerals will be directed to developing countries, the geographical scope of this review is limited to these countries.
