If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle. Fortunately, to improve this issue, battery makers are working towards more responsible supply chains , and have the potential for cheaper, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly energy storage in the near future.
