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.
