Can battery manufacturers securing supply of essential battery raw materials by ?
Based on current market observations, battery manufacturers can expect challenges securing supply of several essential battery raw materials by , McKinsey’s report finds. Battery makers use more than 80% of all lithium that is mined today, and that share could grow to 95% by .
Will manganese demand outpace the demand for battery-grade materials?
Meanwhile, the supply of manganese is projected to grow moderately through , but an increasing demand for battery-grade material is likely to outpace supply, requiring the development of new refineries.
Will battery chemistry reduce cobalt reliance?
Although battery chemistry is evolving to reduce cobalt reliance, McKinsey forecasts a 7.5% annual increase in absolute cobalt demand until . This growth highlights issues around sourcing transparency and price volatility, with companies prioritising ethical and sustainable practices in response.
Can high-purity manganese be used for battery use?
Despite being plentiful, the refinement of high-purity manganese into manganese sulphate monohydrate (HPMSM) for battery usage is complex and demands stringent control to eliminate impurities. McKinsey's production growth projections remain conservative with only a small fraction of demand anticipated to be met by .
