Title: Battery resource assessment. Interim report No. 1. Battery materials demand scenarios

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6879939· OSTI ID:6879939

Projections of demand for batteries and battery materials between 1980 and 2000 are presented. The estimates are based on existing predictions for the future of the electric vehicle, photovoltaic, utility load-leveling, and existing battery industry. Battery demand was first computed as kilowatt-hours of storage for various types of batteries. Using estimates for the materials required for each battery, the maximum demand that could be expected for each battery material was determined.
