This article explores the primary raw materials used in the production of different types of batteries, focusing on lithium-ion, lead-acid, nickel-metal hydride, and solid-state batteries. 1. Lithium-Ion Batteries
We assess the global material demand for light-duty EV batteries for Li, Ni, and Co, as well as for manganese (Mn), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), graphite, and silicon (Si) (for model details, see Supplementary Fig. 1).
Table 9.1 Typical raw material requirements (Li, Co, Ni and Mn) for three battery cathodes in kg/kWh Batteries with lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) cathodes typically require approximately 0.11 kg/kWh of lithium and 0.96 kg/kWh of cobalt (Table 9.1).
The report lays the foundation for integrating raw materials into technology supply chain analysis by looking at cobalt and lithium— two key raw materials used to manufacture cathode sheets and electrolytes—the subcomponents of light-duty vehicle (LDV) lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cells from 2014 through 2016.
The demand for battery raw materials has surged dramatically in recent years, driven primarily by the expansion of electric vehicles (EVs) and the growing need for energy storage solutions.
The global supply chain for battery materials is notably concentrated, particularly in China, which dominates processing and refining stages. This concentration creates vulnerabilities and risks related to geopolitical tensions, trade policies, and market fluctuations.
In this review, we focus on the core-shell structures employed in advanced batteries including LIBs, LSBs, SIBs, etc. Core-shell structures are innovatively classified into four categories and discussed systematically based on spherical core-shell architectures and their aggregates (NPs, spheres, NPs encapsuled in hollow spheres, etc.
Battery systems with core–shell structures have attracted great interest due to their unique structure. Core-shell structures allow optimization of battery performance by adjusting the composition and ratio of the core and shell to enhance stability, energy density and energy storage capacity.
Lithium Metal: Known for its high energy density, but it's essential to manage dendrite formation. Graphite: Used in many traditional batteries, it can also work well in some solid-state designs. The choice of cathode materials influences battery capacity and stability.

The average cost of a lithium-ion battery pack fell to $137 per kWh in 2020, according to a new industry survey from BloombergNEF. That's an inflation-adjusted decline of 13 percent since 2019.
2020 Lithium-Ion Battery Price Survey | BloombergNEF Our 2020 battery price survey has found that the volume-weighted average price for a lithium-ion battery pack, across all sectors, is $137/kWh in 2020, slightly higher than our expectations from a year ago.
Hong Kong and London, December 16, 2020 – Lithium-ion battery pack prices, which were above $1,100 per kilowatt-hour in 2010, have fallen 89% in real terms to $137/kWh in 2020. By 2023, average prices will be close to $100/kWh, according to the latest forecast from research company BloombergNEF (BNEF).
Currently, 54% of the cell price comes from the cathode, 18% from the anode, and 28% from other components. The average price of lithium-ion battery cells dropped from $290 per kilowatt-hour in 2014 to $103 in 2023. In the coming months, prices are expected to drop further due to oversupply from China.
Lithium prices, for example, have plummeted nearly 90% since the late 2022 peak, leading to mine closures and impacting the price of lithium-ion batteries used in EVs. This graphic uses exclusive data from our partner Benchmark Mineral Intelligence to show the evolution of lithium-ion battery prices over the last 10 years.
At the cell level, average BEV prices were just $100/kWh. This indicates that on average, the battery pack portion of the total price accounts for 21%. BNEF's 2020 Battery Price Survey, which considers passenger EVs, e-buses, commercial EVs and stationary storage, predicts that by 2023 average pack prices will be $101/kWh.
Data until March 2023. Lithium-ion battery prices (including the pack and cell) represent the global volume-weighted average across all sectors. Nickel prices are based on the London Metal Exchange, used here as a proxy for global pricing, although most nickel trade takes place through direct contracts between producers and consumers.
This comprehensive review paper seeks to offer an in-depth analysis of the most recent advancements in materials and machine learning techniques for energy storage devices.
In January 2022, the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration jointly issued the Implementation Plan for the Development of New Energy Storage during the 14th Five-Year Plan Period, emphasizing the fundamental role of new energy storage technologies in a new power system.
Most technologies are not passed down in a single lineage. The development of energy storage technology (EST) has become an important guarantee for solving the volatility of renewable energy (RE) generation and promoting the transformation of the power system.
Challenges include high costs, material scarcity, and environmental impact. A multidisciplinary approach with global collaboration is essential. Energy storage technologies, which are based on natural principles and developed via rigorous academic study, are essential for sustainable energy solutions.
Energy storage is not a new technology. The earliest gravity-based pumped storage system was developed in Switzerland in 1907 and has since been widely applied globally. However, from an industry perspective, energy storage is still in its early stages of development.
The energy storage industry is going through a critical period of transition from the early commercial stage to development on a large scale. Whether it can thrive in the next stage depends on its economics.
Recent advancements in electrochemical energy storage technology, notably lithium-ion batteries, have seen progress in key technical areas, such as research and development, large-scale integration, safety measures, functional realisation, and engineering verification and large-scale application function verification has been achieved.
