How the US and Europe Are Reshaping the Li-Battery Value Chain

With electrification at the forefront of the energy transition, understanding the evolving battery value chain is imperative for industry players, policymakers, and investors. As demand for Li-ion battery materials surpasses supply, businesses must proactively:

Optimize supply chains
Align with evolving regulations
Accelerate innovation to maintain a competitive edge

The key takeaways of this report include:

Scaling Production Capacity: To achieve self-sufficiency in materials, scaling production capacity and securing critical minerals are essential. However, this requires supportive government policies and regulations to ensure long-term viability.

Battery Chemistry Evolution: Several emerging battery chemistries, such as sulfide-based solid-state batteries, hold significant promise. Yet, overcoming the commercial viability hurdle through industrial-scale breakthroughs remains a key challenge.

Recycling Revolution: Implementing circular economy strategies, particularly battery recycling, is crucial for ensuring long-term supply sufficiency of battery materials and reducing dependency on imports.

Diversification Beyond China: The US and EU are accelerating domestic production and focusing on recycling to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers, especially China. However, China’s influence across the value chain is substantial, making diversification efforts complex.
