Abstract: Amidst the imperative to address environmental degradation and realize sustainable development, energy transition metals have emerged as focal points for practitioners and scholars. This study delves into the role of these energy metals and clean energy markets in advancing environmental sustainability against dirty energy markets. Employing quantile-on-quantile risk transmission, the research scrutinizes asymmetric trends, unveiling crucial insights. Intriguingly, while markets exhibit intra-class risk transmission, energy metals appear notably detached. Dynamic analysis unravels time-varying spillovers, accentuating heightened connectivity during pivotal events like the shale oil crisis, COVID-19 pandemic, and Russia-Ukraine conflict. Notably, time-varying net spillovers highlight diversification benefits in energy metals and clean energy markets, urging stakeholders—ranging from policymakers to investors—to consider integrating energy metals into mainstream assets for risk reduction. In essence, this study underscores the pivotal role of energy metals and clean energy markets in fostering environmental sustainability.
