Batteries for Electric Mobility

Background

Agenda

The IEA and the Electric Vehicle Initiative of the Clean Energy Ministerial, organised a technical workshop on batteries for electric mobility.  The workshop consisted of four roundtables, opened by a few scene setter presentations, that allowed to discuss some of the key developments in the battery sector that underpin the recent and projected increase in electric mobility. The topics covered in each roundtable, as well as the presentations, are listed here:

1.  Battery chemistries: implications for current cost/performance estimates and potential cost reductions/performance improvements

• Review of status of the main chemistries for the EV Market - Dr. Marcel Meeus, Sustesco‌

2.  Battery manufacturing: scale-up challenges and opportunities as a result of increased adoption of EVs

• Sustainable Development Strategy for EV Battery - Tom Zhao, BYD‌
• Automotive Battery Cost Using BatPaC, ANL‌

3.  Material demand for batteries and potential supply constraints

• The EV revolution and its Impact on Raw Materials, Glencore‌
• Battery Raw Materials–The Fundamentals, Colin Hamilton, BMO‌
• Material Demand for Batteries and Potential Supply Constraints, Benjamin Jones, CRU‌

4.  End-of-life: second/third life opportunities and battery recycling

• Recommendation for End of Life Treatment of Battery - Makoto Yoshida, Nissan‌
• Life-cycles of lithium ion batteries-Gabrielle Gaustad, RIT
