With the future in mind , Ferroglobe is thinking ahead to integrate its supply chain and maintain its strong position in shaping the energy transition . “ Considering our role in silicon metal supply across the globe but particularly in the US , combined with the growth potential of the solar and advanced battery markets , we ’ ve established a longterm strategy to be back integrated in quartz , the critical material required to produce silicon metal ,” Marco explains .
“ We ’ ve recently acquired a high-purity quartz mine in South Carolina , which will boost our annual production capacity to more than 300 kilotons of quartz . It will also increase our mining capacity by 50 percent when combined with our existing quartz operations in Alabama .
