Global procurement of lithium battery packs
📌

What is the global demand for lithium-ion batteries?

Introduction The global demand for lithium-ion batteries is expected to increase 10- to 20-fold this decade, mainly due to the rapid growth of the electric vehicle market . The growing demand implies that capacities for the extraction and refinement of battery raw materials and the production of battery cells must also be increased.

📌

What is the lithium-ion battery supply chain?

Policies surrounding the lithium-ion battery (LIB) supply chain lie at the intersection of trade, climate, and national security considerations. The LIB supply chain spans the globe, and yet some critical inputs are only produced in a handful of countries—in particular China, which is dominant at several key stages of the technology’s production.

📌

How can a lithium-ion battery supply chain improve economic and trade policy?

To spur the technology’s production and deployment, the United States must undertake several economic and trade policy changes to address gaps in its current approach. Lithium-ion battery (LIB) supply chains encapsulate the profound shift in trade, economic, and climate policy underway in the United States and abroad.

📌

How can the US secure the lithium-ion supply chain?

Identifying friendshoring partners—instead of simply supporting onshoring policies—should be a critical part of the U.S. drive to secure the lithium-ion supply chain. These partners will help the country more efficiently acquire the inputs it needs to strengthen its domestic manufacturing capabilities while diversifying away from China’s dominance.

📌

How does US trade policy affect lithium-ion battery production & deployment?

Gaps in U.S. trade policy also drive up the costs of LIB production and deployment in the United States, as well as the manufacturing and deployment costs of key LIB-powered products. Current U.S. most-favored nation (MFN) rates for lithium-ion battery products still impose barriers on the ability to procure these goods.

📌

Will North America have a 50 GWh undersupply of lithium-ion batteries in ?

North America is now expected to have a 50 GWh undersupply of lithium-ion batteries in under our current trajectory scenario, which will require imports from other regions to supplement domestic production.
