‘Huge challenge but also an opportunity to fix it’: Infyos on supply chain ESG risks

In this Energy-Storage.news interview, Infyos’s Sarah Montgomery (CEO & Co-Founder) and Jeff Williamson (Head of Sustainability) discuss the battery industry’s exposure to forced and child labour risk — with around 75% of battery supply chain companies potentially affected — and what it means for compliance with the US Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act and the EU Battery Regulation.

They argue the answer is mitigation rather than disengagement: using supply chain due diligence, contractual safeguards and long-term supplier engagement to identify and remediate risks, supported by a platform that lets suppliers and customers record mitigating actions.
