Customer ServiceHowever, it is likely that the EU will be import reliant to various degrees for primary and processed (batt-grade) materials. Australia and Canada are the two countries with the greatest potential to provide additional and low-risk supply to the EU for almost all battery raw materials.
The global commitment to decarbonizing the transport sector has resulted in an unabated growth in the markets for electric vehicles and their batteries. Consequently, the demand for battery raw materials is continuously growing.
Environmental, social, and governance challenges The supply of battery minerals is highly dependent on the extraction of minerals from primary resources due to the insufficient pace of technological improvements in the field of mineral and metal recycling from secondary sources.
Indeed, the energy expenditure associated with battery production and raw material extraction is a crucial factor in determining the overall environmental impact and reserve efficiency of EVs. We acknowledge the necessity of incorporating these energy costs into our analysis to provide a more holistic evaluation of EV sustainability.
This fact has forced the automotive industry to deal with battery manufacturers , and also to secure the mid- and long-term sustainable supply of battery raw materials through investing in battery minerals mining and refining projects .
Australia and Canada are the two countries with the greatest potential to provide additional and low-risk supply to the EU for almost all battery raw materials. Enhancing circularity along the battery value chains has potential to decrease EU’s supply dependency.
