Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are considered the prime candidate for both EVs and energy storage technologies , but the limitations in term of cost, performance and the constrained lithium supply have also attracted wide attention , .
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. Although manganese consumption is higher in the abundant material scenario than in the critical material scenario, the demand for EV LIB is low due to the high production volume of manganese.
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.
The analysis suggests that a 12-h storage, totaling 5.5 TWh capacity, can meet more than 80 % of the electricity demand in the US with a proper mixture of solar and wind generation. Accelerated deployment of EVs and battery storage has the potential to meet this TWh challenge.
