How is the UK re-working lithium-ion battery production networks?

As demand for electrical energy storage scales, production networks for lithium-ion battery manufacturing are being re-worked organisationally and geographically. The UK - like the US and EU - is seeking to onshore lithium-ion battery production and build a national battery supply chain.

What is a lithium ion battery?

Lithium-ion bateries use lithium ions as the charge carrier. Many different types of lithium-ion batteries are used with a range of combinations of materials used for the electrodes, the choice is dependent on desired characteristics such as energy density and cost.

What is a supply chain analysis of battery production?

Most analyses of battery production adopt a supply chain approach, focussing on the flow and transformation of materials from primary production via manufacturing to final assembly, see e.g. , , , rather than a network of strategic interactions among economic and non-economic actors.

Is the UK a 'global race' for lithium-ion batteries?

The UK too is seeking to onshore global production networks for lithium-ion batteries (LiB) and build a domestic battery supply chain. The UK case is instructive as the geopolitical dynamics of onshoring centre on maintaining the UK's role as an automobile manufacturing platform in the post-Brexit period rather than a general ‘global race’.

How is lithium-ion battery production re-worked?

Lithium-ion battery production is rapidly scaling up, as electromobility gathers pace in the context of decarbonising transportation. As battery output accelerates, the global production networks and supply chains associated with lithium-ion battery manufacturing are being re-worked organisationally and geographically (Bridge and Faigen 2022).

Do solid state batteries use lithium-ion technology?

Although solid state batteries do not use lithium-ion technology, Ilika is part of a broader cell and battery development ecosystem in the UK that harnesses government support (via APC, UKBIC and FBC) and private funding to develop and scale cell and battery technology.
