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
The main raw materials used in lithium-ion battery production include: Lithium Source: Extracted from lithium-rich minerals such as spodumene, petalite, and lepidolite, as well as from lithium-rich brine sources. Role: Acts as the primary charge carrier in the battery, enabling the flow of ions between the anode and cathode. Cobalt
Looking solely at raw material emissions (not including emissions related to material transformation) for materials used to produce an anode electrode, graphite precursors such as graphite flake and petroleum coke are the most emissive materials, contributing about 7 to 8 percent of total emissions from battery raw materials.
The key raw materials used in lead-acid battery production include: Lead Source: Extracted from lead ores such as galena (lead sulfide). Role: Forms the active material in both the positive and negative plates of the battery. Sulfuric Acid Source: Produced through the Contact Process using sulfur dioxide and oxygen.
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.
Battery producers could theoretically limit their emissions from materials mining and refining by up to 80 percent if they source materials from the most sustainable producers, such as those that have already transitioned to lower-emissions fuels and power sources (see sidebar “What constitutes ‘green’ battery materials?”).
