Cost-savings in lithium-ion battery production are crucial for promoting widespread adoption of Battery Electric Vehicles and achieving cost-parity with internal combustion engines. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of projected production costs for lithium-ion batteries by 2030, focusing on essential metals.
Why are cost-savings important in lithium-ion battery production?
Abstract Cost-savings in lithium-ion battery production are crucial for promoting widespread adoption of Battery Electric Vehicles and achieving cost-parity with internal combustion engines. This s...
Can lithium-ion battery production cost trajectories be projected for 2030?
Lithium-ion battery cost trajectories: Our study relies on a sophisticated techno-economic model to project lithium-ion battery production costs for 2030.
Do cost levels impede the adoption of lithium-ion batteries?
The implications of these findings suggest that for the NCX market, the cost levels may impede the widespread adoption of lithium-ion batteries, leading to a significant increase in cumulative carbon emissions.
Are lithium-ion batteries the future of electric vehicles?
Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are pivotal in the shift towards electric mobility, having seen an 85 % reduction in production costs over the past decade. However, achieving even more significant cost reductions is vital to making battery electric vehicles (BEVs) widespread and competitive with internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs).
What is the production cost of lithium-ion batteries in the NCX market?
Under the medium metal prices scenario, the production cost of lithium-ion batteries in the NCX market is projected to increase by +8 % and +1 % for production volumes of 5 and 7.5 TWh, resulting in costs of 110 and 102 US$/kWh cell, respectively.
