    Another one in a series of studies on this topic. This one predicts an 87,000% increase in the demand for battery materials which is not very helpful. Exponential extrapolation from a small basis over a long time horizon can basically come up with any growth figure. The logistic growth curve is a much better and proven model for technology transitions.

    "Demand for cobalt, copper, lithium, cadmium, and rare earth elements needed for solar photovoltaics, batteries, electric vehicle motors, wind turbines, fuel cells, and nuclear reactors is set to explode in the coming years as countries around the world invest heavily in greening their economies".

  • Electric Dreams: The battery revolution and commodity markets As leading carmakers move to electrify their fleet and companies like Alphabet and Uber work on self-driving cars, the commodity industry is being forced to grapple with some difficult questions. EV’s have the potential to reduce oil demand considerably, but how fast and how soon remains a subject of fierce debate. Equally, utility scale battery technology could have a devastating impact on the coal industry if it is able to provide storage for renewable energy. In contrast, EV’s could be a boon to the metals industry and materials like copper, lithium and cobalt that are the key elements of the modern battery. Executives from mining, energy and commodity trading will discuss these topics and others.
