Clean and Lean: Battery Metals Demand From Electrifying Passenger Transport

Summary Report Analysis

Key Findings:

• The electrification of passenger transport in Europe requires significant amounts of battery metals (Li, Ni, Co, Mn), with BAU scenario demanding 27 TWh of batteries from 2022 to 2050—an increase of 200 x compared to 2022.
• Three scenarios assessed: Business As Usual (BAU), Accelerated (fewer car journeys, smaller batteries), and Aggressive (innovative approaches to battery tech and mobility).
• Each scenario leads to increased demand, but technical innovation and shifts in consumer behavior could reduce this need.
• Policy support is essential to ensure Europe's leadership in lower-impact battery system design and scaled recycling.

Key Figures and Data:

Cumulative Raw Material Demand by Scenario (Up to 2050):

Production Constraints:

• Lithium lead times: 4–7 years from discovery to production.
• Nickel: 15–20 years.
• Cumulative demand is enormous (e.g., 3 times more lithium than today required by 2050!).
• Supply chain bottlenecks loom since demand exceeds mineral production capacity.

Policy Recommendations for Cleaner Transition:

• Shift from Large Vehicles: Ban SUVs and phase out oversized cars in EU.
• Prioritize Amply 2 Innovative Battery Tech: Push for sodium-ion batteries, iron-based batteries, etc.
• Maximize Electric Vehicle Efficiency: Requires reduced car journeys, use of public transport, and urban planning policies.
• Accelerate Recycling: Incentivize industrial recycling to capture 15% of demand by 2030.
