Raw Material Risk Assessment Lithium 2023
Due to its specific properties, lithium for rechargeable batteries will continue to be an indispensable, non-substitutable key component for the areas of e-mobility and the expansion and storage of renewable energies (wind, solar) in the coming decades. In the updated study, DERA assesses the future market supply for lithium in six global and two European scenarios. Based on the demand in 2020, demand could increase by a factor of four to eight by 2030.

Recycling of Lithium-Ion Batteries in Germany and Europe
In order to save CO2 emissions, e-mobility has emerged as a key technology and is driving demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Resulting demand for battery raw materials raises the question of recycling potentials of LIBs, with projected growth of spent LIBs inevitably challenging European recycling capacity. Driven by the growing demand for battery raw materials and the legal requirements of the revised Battery Directive, this trend is expected to persist.
