Study finds resource constraints should not be a limiting factor for large-scale EV battery production

Green Car Congress

C) Extraction costs of the elements in the couples, calculated from the USGS prices of the elements. Lifetime system cost, and other factors, will likely limit scale up more than. What is the cost of the elements in the couple (in $/kWh)? 90% for Li-ion couples). (B) ESP based on the reserve base of the elements.
