Customer ServiceDue to the green energy transition, the use of nickel in batteries, notably Li batteries for EVs, has been rapidly increasing (Michaux, 2022). In fact, nickel is considered one of the key metals needed for the global low-carbon energy transition (Wang et al., 2022; Dilshara et al., 2024).
With the ever-increasing production and sales of NEVs, the demand of nickel resources will be increased accordingly due to the extensively application of nickel-rich cathode materials for LIBs. It is predicted that the global nickel consumption in battery industry will increase from 3% in 2017 to 37% in 2030 ( Vale S.A, 2020) ( Fig. 2 a).
It is predicted that the global nickel consumption in battery industry will increase from 3% in 2017 to 37% in 2030 ( Vale S.A, 2020) ( Fig. 2 a). In 2019, China has become the world's largest primary nickel consumption country with the corresponding share of 55%.
In both scenarios, EVs and battery storage account for about half of the mineral demand growth from clean energy technologies over the next two decades, spurred by surging demand for battery materials. Mineral demand from EVs and battery storage grows tenfold in the STEPS and over 30 times in the SDS over the period to 2040.
In fact, nickel is considered one of the key metals needed for the global low-carbon energy transition (Wang et al., 2022; Dilshara et al., 2024). The main producers of nickel are Indonesia, Philippines, Russia, New Caledonia, and Australia (Dilshara et al., 2024).
As a transition metal, Ni provides high energy capacity, along with high conductivity and energy density, which improves the quality of the lithium-ion battery performance (Nuhu et al., 2023). The global Ni consumption was led by other Ni-based products, such as stainless steels, alloys, plating, and batteries.
