View moreOrganic molecules undergo multiple degradation reactions, which could have a significant impact on the overall battery performance. Currently, the long-term stability of organic active materials cannot compete with their inorganic counterparts 10.
Battery raw materials like lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3), lithium hydroxide (LiOH), nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) have experienced significant price fluctuations over the past five years. Figures 1 and 2 show the development of material spot prices between 2018 and 2023.
The largest single contributor to the cost of battery cells is the materials used in them, especially the cathode materials. In addition to lithium, the transition metals manganese, iron, cobalt and nickel are used in particular.
It can therefore be assumed that the stability of the molecules and the corresponding plant maintenance are the main drivers for the often very high expected costs associated with organic active materials. Figure S3 shows the Future Case capital costs Ccapital as a function of the electrolyte pH.
At present, the purchase prices for battery raw materials have probably already benefited from the lower spot market prices, even in longer-running but dynamic contracts. Our estimates give a price level of about 120 USD/kWh for the NMC811 and about 95 USD/kWh for the LFP cell.
The global economic slowdown due to the Covid19 pandemic, for example, may have led to the expectation of decreasing demand for battery raw materials. As a result, prices fell in 2019 and the beginning of 2020.
