At a lower cost are lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, which are cheaper to make than cobalt and nickel-based variants. LFP battery cells have an average price of $98.5 per kWh.
As prices for natural and synthetic graphite, lithium carbonate and hydroxide, and nickel, cobalt, and manganese sulfate fall, the average raw materials cost for an EV has dropped to $510. This marks a significant decline
The latest data based on EV registrations in over 110 countries show the sales weighted average monthly dollar value of the lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese and graphite contained in the
On average, LFP cells were 32% cheaper than lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) cells in 2023," BNEF writes. Forecast: Record Low Battery Prices Again In 2024,
On average, LFP cells were 32% cheaper than lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) cells in 2023. Miners and metals traders surveyed expect prices for key battery metals like lithium, nickel and cobalt to

The 2022 ATB represents cost and performance for battery storage across a range of durations (2–10 hours). It represents lithium-ion batteries (LIBs)—focused primarily on nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) and lithium iron
NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide) is the industry-standard cathode material driving innovation in lithium-ion battery technology. Known for its high energy density, thermal stability, and long cycle life, NMC is the preferred choice for
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) EV battery prices have decreased dramatically over the past few years, mainly due to the fall in prices of critical battery metals: Lithium, cobalt and nickel. For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000
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 cost of an electric vehicle (EV) battery pack can vary depending on composition and chemistry. In this graphic, we use data from Benchmark Minerals Intelligence to showcase the different costs of battery

A process model has been developed and used to study the production process of a common lithium-ion cathode material, lithiated nickel manganese cobalt oxide, using the co-precipitation method. The process was simulated for a plant producing 6500 kg day−1.
Asian nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) battery cell prices fell to their lowest level for the first time in over three years in May, retreating significantly from the peak seen in 2022. A combination of lower critical battery raw material prices, supply glut, a sluggish demand and improving technology has kept a tight lid on NCM []
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.
Schematic of a process for the production of lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide powder. The product stream, a slurry of solid precipitates in a solution, is phase separated, and then filtered and washed several times. The filtration may be done in a rotary vacuum filter followed by drying in a spray dryer.
This combination of changes indicates the possibility of the NMC cathode material price approaching $20 per kg, or 19% less than the base case scenario. There are yet other cost-cutting measures that can drive the cost down even further. Fig. 6.
In the weeks following confirmation that the cobalt market will face an additional three months of no exports from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), metal prices have consolidated as participants point to the future for bullish sentiment.
