If investment in battery research and thus in the education of academic experts continues at the current level, their share of the industrial labour market could double by 2030. Without research funding, our calculations show that the number of battery experts would develop much more slowly or even stagnate.
Companies from battery makers and lithium miners to cathode and anode producers have suffered a profit decline because of falling battery prices, caused by an overexpansion in response to a demand surge between 2021 and 2022.
With the current cuts in KTF funding for "measures for the further development of electric mobility", particularly in the field of battery research in Germany, there are fears that the loss of academic education could massively increase the shortage of skilled workers and jeopardise the quality of battery expert knowledge.
According to media reports, the impending cuts to German battery research could have a drastic impact on the competitiveness of the German and thus European battery industry - because this could further increase the already noticeable shortage of skilled labour and scientific experts.

This has created a veritable pipeline of experts in battery research. If investment in battery research and thus in the education of academic experts continues at the current level, their share of the industrial labour market could double by 2030.

The recent advances in battery technology and reductions in battery costs have brought battery energy storage systems (BESS) to the point of becoming increasingly cost-effective projects to serve a range of power sector interventions, especially when combined with PV and where diesel is the alternative, or where subsidies or incentives are...
Pairing the economic with the affective, the remainder of this paper explores a situation where a loss of financial investment becomes reckoned with in different ways prompting those people to re-evaluate their affective investments. Taxi investors in Melbourne. The focus for exploring loss in this paper involves investors in taxi mobilities in Melbourne, Australia. Though …

It plans to produce batteries storing 3 terawatt-hours by 2030, which would exhaust most of the world''s nickel production at current levels, says Jefferies, the US investment bank. Boosting ...
Game-changing new advances in AI and analytics will finally overcome this hurdle, dramatically reducing volatility and uncertainty around battery costs to de-risk and accelerate the rollout of battery storage.
This has led to some speculation that part of the reason for GM and Daimler to be so vocal about their ambitions is an attempt to garner some of the EV stardust that has propelled Tesla''s value ...
The concerns over the sustainability of LIBs have been expressed in many reports during the last two decades with the major topics being the limited reserves of critical components [5-7] and social and environmental impacts of the production phase of the batteries [8, 9] parallel, there is a continuous quest for alternative battery technologies based on more …
The findings about the importance of investment in R&D were especially significant, Ziegler says, because much of this investment happened after lithium-ion battery technology was commercialized, a stage at which some analysts thought the research contribution would become less significant. Over roughly a 20-year period starting five years …

MIT researchers find the biggest factor in the dramatic cost decline for lithium-ion batteries in recent decades was research and development, particularly in chemistry and materials science. This outweighed gains achieved through economies of scale, which was the second-largest category of reductions.
In assessing the financial case for a battery, we have modeled a 13.3 kWh Alpha ESS battery, which is similar in size to the popular Tesla Powerwall 2 (13.5 kWh), however, retails for much cheaper at ~$10,000 …

Following four consecutive years of significant growth, this year is set to see a sizeable decline in global battery investments for the first time since 2020, according to Rystad Energy research. A slump in battery infrastructure investments in mainland China is largely responsible for the global slowdown, as the Asian economic powerhouse ...
The loss of capacity due to, e.g. loss of lithium ions or spallation of the anodes. This can be due to use (charging and discharging) and/or sitting at open circuit (calendar aging) Anode.

Mines extract raw materials; for batteries, these raw materials typically contain lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and graphite. The "upstream" portion of the EV battery supply chain, which refers to the extraction of the minerals needed to build batteries, has garnered considerable attention, and for good reason.. Many worry that we won''t extract these minerals …
