In terms of production processes and geopolitics, sodium-ion batteries are also an alternative that can accelerate the transition to a fossil-free society. "Batteries based on abundant raw materials could reduce geopolitical risks and dependencies on specific regions, both for battery manufacturers and countries," says Rickard Arvidsson.
The new EU regulations will significantly drive the development of an environmentally friendly battery industry in Europe. As one of the few European lithium-ion battery manufacturers, Leclanché not only actively supports the low-carbon footprint approach of the EU, but even goes beyond it, thanks to its water-based production process.
"EV price parity is getting closer, but progress varies by segment and country. Prices for lithium-ion batteries increased for the first time in 2022 and are likely to remain elevated in 2023. This delays the upfront price parity of battery electric vehicles with combustion cars.
Consumers spent USD 120 billion on electric car purchases in 2020, a 50% increase from 2019, which breaks down to a 41% increase in sales and a 6% rise in average prices. The rise in average prices reflects that Europe, where prices are higher on average than in Asia, accounted for a bigger proportion of new electric car registrations.
In order to increase the market share of EVs, it is crucial to analyze and understand consumer perception and behavior. Consumer behavior is shaped by social, economic, and environmental concerns that lead to new consumer demands and therefore require different strategies for companies (Hofenk et al., 2019).More and more attention is being paid …
Primobius GmbH is an incorporated joint venture between Australian Stock Exchange listed company Neometals Ltd and private German global plant manufacturer, SMS group GmbH. The Primobius recycling process offers a scaleable, efficient, sustainable recycling solution that generates high purity, low carbon footprint battery materials for reuse in the battery supply chain.
While electric cars are expected to significantly decrease greenhouse gas emissions, they have an environmentally damaging downside: their batteries. On 14 June 2023, the European Parliament adopted an update …
The rapidly increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) worldwide is causing high demand for production of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Tremendous efforts have been made to develop different components of LIBs in addition to design of battery pack architectures as well as manufacturing processes to make better batteries with affordable prices.
The world''s primary modes of transportation are facing two major problems: rising oil costs and increasing carbon emissions. As a result, electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining popularity as they are independent of oil and do not produce greenhouse gases. However, despite their benefits, several operational issues still need to be addressed for EV adoption to …
