The demand of nickel for lithium-ion is drastically increasing, Interesting Right? Find out the reason why!

 

The focus on lithium-ion batteries seems to reflect supply and demand of lithium and cobalt and the obtain rates of EVs and ESS but it would be very wrong not to include nickel. If EVs are to replace petrol/diesel vehicles, they will require battery packs that can deliver the ranges that drivers are used to.

 

First-generation EVs relied on lithium-ion batteries that were made using lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and lithium manganese oxide (LMO), neither of which used nickel in their chemistries. Since range anxiety has been a factor putting people off buying EVs, the industry has developed batteries that have higher energy densities and therefore greater ranges. These second-generation lithium-ion batteries have a different chemistry, one that use nickel manganese and cobalt (NMC). Check Disclaimer on Profile and landing page.
