From the results, it can be concluded that the abundant material scenario requires less material demand of battery raw materials. The demand for cobalt and nickel in the abundant material scenario is about half of the demand for the same raw materials in the critical material scenario.
The demand for raw materials for lithium-ion battery (LIB) manufacturing is projected to increase substantially, driven by the large-scale adoption of electric vehicles (EVs).
The global demand for raw materials for batteries such as nickel, graphite and lithium is projected to increase in 2040 by 20, 19 and 14 times, respectively, compared to 2020. China will continue to be the major supplier of battery-grade raw materials over 2030, even though global supply of these materials will be increasingly diversified.
The future material demand in 2040 for lithium, cobalt and nickel for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles exceeds current raw material production. The recycling potential for lithium and nickel is more than half the raw material demand for lithium-ion batteries in 2040. The market for electromobility has grown constantly in the last years.
The future demand for electric vehicle battery cathode raw materials lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese was calculated. The future material demand in 2040 for lithium, cobalt and nickel for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles exceeds current raw material production.
To meet the future demand for the raw materials for EV LIB, today's lithium production would have to be increased by up to six times and today's cobalt production by up to three times, depending on the technology and growth scenario. This could be a challenge for the industry to massively scale up resource production.

However, the proportion of cobalt could fall significantly from 200 g/kg of cell weight to around 60 g/kg. Therefore, the demand for primary raw materials for vehicle battery production by 2030 should amount to between 250,000 and 450,000 t of lithium, between 250,000 and 420,000 t of cobalt and between 1.3 and 2.4 million t of nickel [2].
