A comprehensive comparison of existing and future cell chemistries is currently lacking in the literature. Consequently, how energy consumption of battery cell production will develop, especially after 2030, but currently it is still unknown how this can be decreased by improving the cell chemistries and the production process.
The development of new battery technologies starts with the lab scale where material compositions and properties are investigated. In pilot lines, batteries are usually produced semi-automatically, and studies of design and process parameters are carried out. The findings from this are the basis for industrial series production.
All other steps consumed less than 2 kWh/kWh of battery cell capacity. The total amount of energy consumed during battery cell production was 41.48 kWh/kWh of battery cell capacity produced. Of this demand, 52% (21.38 kWh/kWh of battery cell capacity) was required as natural gas for drying and the drying rooms.

Abstract. The battery cell formation is one of the most critical process steps in lithium-ion battery (LIB) cell production, because it affects the key battery performance metrics, e.g. rate capability, lifetime and safety, is time-consuming and contributes significantly to energy consumption during cell production and overall cell cost. As LIBs usually exceed the electrochemical sability ...

The main sources of supply for battery recycling plants in 2030 will be EV battery production scrap, accounting for half of supply, and retired EV batteries, accounting for about 20%. Of course, scrap materials remain in an almost pristine state, and therefore are much easier and cheaper to recycle and feed back into the manufacturing plant. While the supply of both …
