In 2019, monthly average lithium carbonate prices fell 36% between January and December. Q1 2020 saw monthly average prices fall further to less than US$7,000/t Li 2 CO 3 for the first time since 2014, eroding price increases caused by forecast strong demand growth in the lithium-ion battery industry and uncertainty over future supply.

IBM and its partners have launched a multi-year research initiative exploring rechargeable Li-air systems for transportation—The Battery 500 Project ( earlier post )—but are viewing it in terms of a multi-decade development cycle. Also on the list of five is the arrival of advanced batteries, including air batteries (e.g.,

IDTechEx’s analysis in their new report, “ Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles 2022-2042 ”, forecasts the market value of on-road fuel cell vehicles will grow to $160 billion in 2042 at a CAGR of 23.9% over the 20-year forecast period. This becomes an even greater challenge in a depot situation, where megawatts of power are required.

Robert Privette: Rechargeable batteries are among the building blocks for the green energy transition. However, at the start of its useful life an EV tends to come with a higher “carbon backpack” because of the battery. Recycling, when done properly, reduces a battery’s carbon backpack considerably compared to mining.
