As one of the most crucial automobile manufacturing countries, Mexico has recognized the potential of lithium batteries to advance the field of electric vehicles. The present work aims to provide an overview of lithium batteries in Mexico for electric vehicles and highlights the research topics and the current state of the art.
AMLO and many Mexican policymakers hope to leverage lithium to profit from the rapidly growing value chain of clean energy minerals and technology. Lithium-ion batteries, electric vehicles, and other clean energy technologies are attracting skyrocketing sums of capital.
In addition, the Mexican government lacks the financial and technical capacity to invest in lithium development, particularly Sonora, where lithium deposits are trapped in clay rocks. Thus, a scenario of absolute nationalism where the government conducts the exploration and extraction of lithium is implausible.
Thus, a scenario of absolute nationalism where the government conducts the exploration and extraction of lithium is implausible. Instead, Mexico requires the investment and technology of private entities to produce lithium. Also, Mexico should use the USMCA to create a lithium value chain among the three-member States to compete with China.
In recent years, Mexico’s outgoing President, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), has sought to develop lithium resources in the state of Sonora. AMLO and many Mexican policymakers hope to leverage lithium to profit from the rapidly growing value chain of clean energy minerals and technology.
This article addresses the risks and uncertainties that Mexico faces in developing lithium since the discovery of the world’s largest lithium mine in Sonora, Mexico. In addition, the increasing demand for hybrid and electric vehicles has put Mexico in an excellent position for the development of lithium soon.
