Roskill: Nickel sulfate to be the key growth area of nickel demand over the next decade; driven by EVs

Green Car Congress

As a crucial raw material in Li-ion batteries used to electrify vehicles, a significant volume of nickel sulfate will be required in the decade ahead from the booming automotive sector. As such, the future availability and suitability of feedstocks for the battery industry will be essential to the production of nickel sulfate.

EU JRC releases Roskill study on demand and supply security of nickel for EV batteries; risk of shortages

Green Car Congress

Against this demand backdrop, Roskill critically assessed the EU’s internal supply capabilities and identified the risk of future shortages. The expected requirements for additional nickel are “seismic” for the market and there are multiple challenges to ensuring long-term supply security, according to the report’s authors.

The difference between lithium iron phosphate and lithium battery

Setec Powerr

Lithium iron phosphate battery refers to the lithium-ion battery with lithium iron phosphate as the cathode material. Lithium-ion battery cathode materials mainly include lithium cobaltate, manganate, nickelate, ternary materials, lithium iron phosphate, etc. Transportation power supply. so the volume is relatively large.
