The main message of the "Coming of Age" study is that 2030 will be the year in which e-mobility finally triumphs. Energy density, charging speed, optimized batteries, and more efficient electric drives are making this change possible. In addition to electric vehicles, the number of plug-in hybrid vehicles is also increasing, although electric cars will win the race in the long term. According to estimates, global sales of electric drive systems will double by 2030, reaching over 630 billion euros annually. By 2035, the share of purely electric vehicles could rise to around 60 percent. At the same time, demand for batteries will increase approximately fivefold. Electric cars have already achieved the same level of cost-effectiveness (from purchase to resale) as combustion engines. Charging times and ranges have also improved significantly. China plays a dominant role in the electrification and production of battery cells. US and European manufacturers still have a lot of catching up to do in this area.

This is where battery metals come into play. Lithium, nickel, cobalt, copper, rare earths, and graphite are all necessary. Cobalt, for example, is a strategic raw material for which there are currently no alternatives. Nickel is needed for the production of lithium-ion batteries. Demand for this metal is set to rise in the coming years. Copper is another metal that is used in significantly greater quantities in electric cars than in combustion engines.

Canada Nickel Company – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/canada-nickel-company-inc/ – has nickel and cobalt in its Crawford project in Ontario. The exploration program is being pushed forward with vigor. Nickel is also needed not only for electric cars, but also for the stainless-steel industry.

Green Bridge Metals – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/green-bridge-metals-corp/ – specializes in battery metals, particularly copper, nickel, platinum, and palladium. Its projects are located in Canada and Minnesota.
