It explores the intricate interplay between various factors, such as market dynamics, essential metal prices, production volume, and technological advancements, and their collective influence on future production cost trends within lithium-ion battery technology.
Battery raw materials like lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3), lithium hydroxide (LiOH), nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) have experienced significant price fluctuations over the past five years. Figures 1 and 2 show the development of material spot prices between 2018 and 2023.
The materials under investigation are predominantly used in the battery value chain, so that the dynamics are essentially shaped by battery demand and the expansion of production capacities for materials. Their price therefore particularly reflects market factors such as supply and demand fluctuations.
The largest single contributor to the cost of battery cells is the materials used in them, especially the cathode materials. In addition to lithium, the transition metals manganese, iron, cobalt and nickel are used in particular.
Prices for key battery raw materials have been subject to enormous fluctuations over the past two years, putting an end, at least temporarily, to the trend of falling battery cell costs.
Under the medium metal prices scenario, the production cost of lithium-ion batteries in the NCX market is projected to increase by +8 % and +1 % for production volumes of 5 and 7.5 TWh, resulting in costs of 110 and 102 US$/kWh cell, respectively.
