BMI Predicts Lithium Shortfall in 2025

The world is set to experience a major shortfall in lithium supplies as early as 2025 thanks to surging demand for the metal. Lithium is a key ingredient in the development of batteries for electric cars, electronic devices, and energy-storage solutions for renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. As countries ramp battery electric vehicles and renewable energy infrastructure development, demand for lithium is expected to surge over the next decade. However, according to Fitch Solutions research unit BMI, global lithium demand will surpass what the market can supply within the next two years. In a recent report, the…

Cosmic Mineral Could Solve Rare Earth Shortage Around the World

China’s monopoly over the global rare earth metal market is a consistent thorn in the side of the United States and other nations that share its interests. As the world transitions to renewable energy over the next few decades, experts worry that China’s dominance in the key rare earth metals supply chain will grant it unprecedented leverage over the U.S., its largest rival. Interestingly, a mineral that typically occurs in space may be the key to weaning the U.S. off of China and achieving some semblance of independence in the rare earth metal market. Cambridge University Department of Materials Science…

Geopolitics Puts Indonesian Nickel in the Crosshairs

Nickel will play a crucial role in global climate change efforts due to its use in batteries, particularly electric vehicle batteries and energy storage options. As the United States and other countries transition from traditional cars to battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and replace greenhouse gas-emitting fossil fuels with renewable energy, global demand for lithium is expected to explode. However, geopolitics may complicate America’s transition to electric vehicles and hamper its vision for a carbon-free economy. For example, China has made significant investments in the supply chain for battery metals and currently controls most of the globe’s nickel extraction and refining,…

Study Shows Benefits of Closing Coal Plants Could Be Broader in the US Than Previously Thought

Recent research has suggested that shutting down coal plants could have even broader health benefits than experts previously thought. While experts already knew that coal plant closures resulted in cleaner air and better air-quality levels, a new study indicates that cleaning up the air could have greater benefits than data suggested. Researchers studied the 2016 closure of a coal processing plant in Neville Island on the Ohio River that had produced coal-coke for steelmaking processes for close to a century. They discovered a substantial reduction in air-pollution levels in neighboring communities. Specifically, sulfur dioxide went down by 90% and arsenic…
