EV battery production faces supply chain, geopolitical headwinds – report

S&P Global Mobility also said soaring prices of critical battery metals threaten the profit margins of suppliers and automakers, with issues around the production of these metals boosting prices for components and vehicles.

“Elements such as lithium, nickel, and cobalt do not just magically appear and transform into EV batteries and other components,” said Graham Evans, director of auto supply Chain & technology at S&P Global Mobility.

The intermediate steps between excavation of elements and final assembly are a particular choke point, he added.

Reuters reported earlier this month, the world’s top automakers plan to spend nearly $1.2 trillion through 2030 to develop and produce millions of electric vehicles, along with the batteries and raw materials.

“Achieving its volume goals will require a steep growth curve for a burgeoning industry,” the report said.

EV leader Tesla Inc will need about 139,000 metric tons of nickel in 2030, the most required by any vehicle brand.
