Top Stories on Electric Vehicle Battery Releases in September
In a bid to ensure the growth of the electric vehicle (EV) sector is both environmentally friendly and socially responsible, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) has authored the third report supporting an ethical and sustainable battery supply chain for electric mobility vehicles.
The report, accessible here, emphasizes the importance of an ethical and sustainable battery supply chain for electric vehicles. It presents a comprehensive strategy to reduce mineral demand in EV batteries and promotes battery reuse and recycling, as well as responsible material sourcing.
Simultaneously, the KTH Royal Institute of Technology provides an outlook on EV battery pack design trends, though a direct link to this outlook is not provided. The report, on the other hand, explores emerging battery pack designs like Cell-to-pack and Cell-to-chassis, which have implications for recycling practices and overall sustainability within the electric cars industry.
Meanwhile, the Alternative Battery Technologies Roadmap 2030+, produced by Fraunhofer ISI, examines various battery technologies that may challenge lithium-ion batteries' dominance. The report identifies potential markets for these alternative battery technologies and assesses their viability of production. It also investigates the benefits and potential applications of these alternatives, while considering geopolitical factors.
The second report, accessible here, focuses on the challenges associated with electric vehicle batteries. It highlights the need for a lifecycle-oriented approach to EV battery pack design and stresses the importance of simplifying disassembly processes for recycling purposes.
Both reports underscore the need for a sustainable approach to EV battery production and usage, with the aim of ensuring the growth of the electric vehicle sector is not only economically viable but also environmentally friendly and socially responsible.
