Total annual battery demand in 2030 is 35% higher than in last year''s outlook, largely due to higher demand from passenger EVs. Rise in metal prices could impact chemistry adoption but not EV uptake: Sustained high raw
Although battery chemistry is evolving to reduce cobalt reliance, McKinsey forecasts a 7.5% annual increase in absolute cobalt demand until 2030. This growth highlights issues around sourcing transparency and price volatility, with companies prioritising ethical and sustainable practices in response.
For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000 per metric ton in 2022 to about $30,000 in 2024. Similarly, the price for lithium carbonate has fallen from a high of approximately $70,000 per metric ton to well below $15,000 in 2024.
Nickel-metal hydride batteries exhibit relatively high raw material cost due to large amounts of nickel. These batteries are also subject to commodity price fluctuations of nickel, leading to pack cost of 250 USD/kWh in the worst case.
