Battery resource assessement. Volume 1. Scenarios, investment, and materials cost
The possibility of widespread use of storage batteries for load leveling, photovoltaic, and electric vehicle applications creates a potential for major shifts in the utilization of various resources. In addition to materials requirements, significant investments will be required in order for the battery industry to manufacture a large number of batteries. A study to identify the resources required for a significant expansion of the battery industry and especially to note resources that may be strained as a result of accelerated battery development is presented. Scenarios of future battery demand, an analysis of battery manufacturing investments, an analysis of battery price sensitivity to materials prices, and an analysis of the availability of several key battery materials are included.
