Sulfur is traditionally viewed as a low-value byproduct of oil refining and is largely stockpiled or exported for fertilizer production. However, this element is increasingly being considered as a key enabler for next-generation batteries.

Today, however, national strategies, significant infrastructure investments, and proactive policy frameworks are converging to support a decisive transformation in energy and industry.
