Question Id: S2.SBM-3_04
We are aware of a material risk related to forced labour allegations of inadequate labour protections and oversight in our supply chain for critical components. These include minerals and metals, such as rare earth elements for wind turbine magnets, copper for export or array cables, lithium for batteries, and silica for solar panels. These materials are often sourced from countries and areas in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, where enforcement of labour protections is weaker, increasing the risk of forced and child labour.
