To gain exposure to the lithium market in the UK, you can invest in companies and ETF s that are linked to the commodity. To do so, you will need to register an account with a broker offering lithium stocks or derivatives such as CFD s and futures. Look at the broker’s pricing, UK regulation and access to additional tools.
Lithium production demands a significant amount of water and can cause contamination in nearby areas. If new regulations are implemented, such as water recycling or changes to the chemicals used, this could make the extraction process more costly. This could lead to reduced supply and potentially drive up the lithium trading price.
BloombergNEF (BNEF)’s inaugural Long-Duration Energy Storage Cost Survey shows that while most long-duration energy storage technologies are still early-stage and costly compared to lithium-ion batteries, some have already or are set to achieve lower costs for longer durations.
Lithium batteries are valued for their energy-storing capabilities, making lithium a key element of global renewable energy initiatives. As more countries move towards renewable sources such as offshore wind, the need for lithium technology may rise and could drive prices up.
Climate tech explained: grid-scale battery storage
