The impact caused by the extraction of lithium for the components of the Li-ion battery is less than 2.3% (Ecoindicator 99 points). The major contributor to the environmental burden caused by the battery is the supply of copper and aluminum for the production of the anode and the cathode, plus the required cables or the battery management system.
In recent years, the mutual adjustment and mutual influence between the supply and demand of power lithium-ion batteries have gradually narrowed the gap between supply and demand. It is also worth noting that from the perspective of the loss in material flow, the power lithium-ion battery of stock in EVs has a decreasing trend.
There are three aspects of power lithium-ion battery supply and demand: raw material supply, battery production and installation, and market demand, and all three are highly concentrated; the core countries in each link are different. This segmentation puts the development and supply of the entire industry at significant risk.
The power lithium-ion battery has shown a rapid growth trend from both the supply and demand sides. However, the growth rate of the demand side of the global power lithium-ion battery is much higher than that of the supply side, and the annual stock rate is declining.
The 5-year material flow analysis results also show that the growth rate of the demand side of the global power lithium-ion battery is much higher than the growth rate of the supply side, and it is very likely that there will be a crisis of short supply in the foreseeable future.
It is also expected that the development pattern of the power lithium-ion battery industry will undergo more remarkable changes in the future. The high concentration of each process in the power lithium-ion battery supply chain will significantly increase the supply risk.
