Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what the Government’s assessment of lithium demand will be to meet electric car battery production in the UK by 2030.
In December 2020, the Faraday Institution published issue 6 of its Faraday Insights series, focused on Lithium, Cobalt and Nickel. It has developed a model that considers the role that differing battery chemistries and mineral intensities may have in overall demand for lithium and other battery materials.
