The projection with the smallest relative cost decline after 2030 showed battery cost reductions of 5.8% from 2030 to 2050. This 5.8% is used from the 2030 point to define the conservative cost
PDF | On Oct 1, 2024, Solomon Evro and others published Navigating Battery Choices: A Comparative Study of Lithium Iron Phosphate and Nickel Manganese Cobalt Battery
The cathode is made from lithium metal oxide combinations of cobalt, nickel, manganese, iron, and aluminium, and its composition largely determines battery performance. The EV market is poised for rapid growth, and the surge in
The purpose of using Ni-rich NMC as cathode battery material is to replace the cobalt content with Nickel to further reduce the cost and improve battery capacity.
The nickel manganese cobalt battery market size exceeded USD 30.5 billion in 2024 and is estimated to exhibit 14.8% CAGR between 2025 and 2034 driven by growth in renewable energy sector.

Recent studies show confidence in a more stable battery market growth and, across time-specific studies, authors expect continuously declining battery cost regardless of raw material price
The automaker began its EV battery journey with nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) cells and introduced lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries in 2023. The new LMR chemistry, Poon said, represents the next
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.
The cost and prices calculated in previous sections are only valid for small production quantities. Therefore the current cost of goods sold for automotive NMC battery packs will be used as a baseline, which is around 300 dollar/kWh according to literature [54, 66, 67].
Therefore, it should be considered to change the cathode materials from cobalt-rich towards nickel-rich and Fe- and Mn-based cathode materials. The transition to other cell chemistries like Fe- and Mn-based materials can significantly reduce the pressure on Co and Ni demand. This would result in lower raw material use for EV LIBs.
It can be seen in literature many research efforts or ongoing on silicon based cells. Therefore in 2030 namely a silicon-alloy anode combined a nickel rich cathode (NMC (6:2:2)) to maximize its energy content will be most likely on the market.
