This article provides an in-depth look at the essential raw materials, their projected demand, and strategies to address the challenges inherent in sourcing and processing them.
The future demand for electric vehicle battery cathode raw materials lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese was calculated. The future material demand in 2040 for lithium, cobalt and nickel for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles exceeds current raw material production.
From the results, it can be concluded that the abundant material scenario requires less material demand of battery raw materials. The demand for cobalt and nickel in the abundant material scenario is about half of the demand for the same raw materials in the critical material scenario.
The future raw material demand m future (kt) can be derived from the specific metal amounts in battery cathodes q metal (g/Wh), the global capacity demand c demand (GWh), and the future battery cathode market shares p cathode (dimensionless).
For instance, the EU Batteries Regulation aims to make batteries sustainable throughout their entire life cycle, from material sourcing to battery collection, recycling, and repurposing. Pressure to address ESG concerns will likely increase moving forward.
A European study on Critical Raw Materials for Strategic Technologies and Sectors in the European Union (EU) evaluates several metals used in batteries and lists lithium (Li), cobalt (Co), and natural graphite as potential critical materials (Huisman et al., 2020; European Commission 2020b).
To meet the future demand for the raw materials for EV LIB, today's lithium production would have to be increased by up to six times and today's cobalt production by up to three times, depending on the technology and growth scenario. This could be a challenge for the industry to massively scale up resource production.
