Lithium battery downstream analysis
Lithium-ion battery (LIB) pack is the core component of electric vehicles (EVs). As the demand is continuously increasing, it puts a lot of strain on the battery raw material supply chains. Additionally, precursors act as a crucial intermediary products that connect the upstream resources and downstream materials in the battery industrial
Geopolitics of the Li‐ion battery value chain and the Lithium
Downstream, the LIB value chain has four different stages (creating battery components, production of battery cells, assembly of batteries, and manufacturing of EV). Recycling could potentially be considered part of the downstream value chain, but an analysis is outside the scope of this work.

6 Frequently Asked Questions about “Downstream of battery component factories”
What is the downstream part of the EV battery supply chain?
The downstream portion of the EV battery supply chain involves the assembly of battery cells into modules and then packs before placing finished batteries into EVs. (To learn more about how EV batteries work and how they're made, read “ EV Batteries 101: The Basics.”)
How can countries diversify their EV battery supply chain?
As the world transitions to electric vehicles, countries are looking to diversify their respective positions across the EV battery supply chain. This encompasses upstream mining and extraction of raw materials to downstream manufacturing of the battery itself.
How is the EV battery supply chain dispersed around the world?
The EV battery supply chain is dispersed around the world — battery minerals travel an average of 50,000 miles from extraction to battery cell production. At the same time, much of the mineral supply is concentrated in just a few countries. This dispersion and concentration make the global supply chain vulnerable to disruptions, including:
How can a competitive battery manufacturing industry be developed?
Initiatives like the European Battery Alliance and proposed investments in the US are driving the development of competitive battery manufacturing industries. Automakers are adopting new business models to control supply chain margins and secure access to minerals supply.
What happens if a battery supply chain is concentrated in a few countries?
If the battery supply chain, or portions of it, are concentrated in just a few countries or regions, the global battery supply chain will suffer should any of these places be faced with disruptions like natural disasters, geopolitics, or changing trade alliances.
What are the downstream activities of lithium batteries?
Downstream activities include manufacturing of the batteries and end goods for the consumer. The production of lithium batteries in China has nearly three times higher emissions than the US because electricity generation in China relies more on coal. End of life activities include recycling or recovery of materials when possible.
