The defense ministry launched Iran's largest plant for production of lithium battery packs in March to increase production capacity by 35% and to remove any need for imports of the product. Iran’s capacity for production of lithium batteries is expanding to help its electrification drive.
Shojaei said that production of lithium batteries in Iran will scale up once more electric cars are on the roads in the country. “A number of companies have kicked off work on lithium battery cells and maybe they can introduce commercial products in the next two years,” he said.
Reza Shojaei, who serves as a deputy head at the Iranian defense ministry’s department for energy resources, said on Tuesday that Iran has the technology needed to design and manufacture lithium batteries that are used in electric vehicles.
It took Iran about four years of exploration to find the deposits, and its Ministry of Industries, Mining and Trade is currently assessing its technological capacity as part of efforts to start up the mines in partnership with private investors. Iran is reportedly also searching for more lithium deposits in the area.
Iran is reportedly also searching for more lithium deposits in the area. However, the scheduled start of extraction by 2025 means there is no immediate relief for the Iranian economy.
Industry minister Abbas Aliabadi said on Monday that some 3,000 new charging points for electric cars will be available across Iran by March 2025. The defense ministry launched Iran's largest plant for production of lithium battery packs in March to increase production capacity by 35% and to remove any need for imports of the product.
Iran''s lithium lode: A potential strategic game-changer
Iran''s recent unearthing of a vast lithium deposit – potentially the world''s second largest – has sent shockwaves through the global lithium competition landscape. Amid the shifting currents of these developments, two key players stand out: China and Australia. China is the world''s largest importer and processor of lithium, as well as a major lithium battery manufacturer.
