Think global act local: The dependency of global lithium-ion battery

Given the current status quo, the global carbon footprint of the lithium-ion battery industry is projected to reach up to 1.0 Gt CO 2-eq per year within the next decade. With material supply chain decarbonisation and energy savings in battery manufacturing, a lower estimate of 0.5 Gt CO 2-eq per year is possible.

Lithium-Ion Vehicle Battery Production

With an increasing number of battery electric vehicles being produced, the contribution of the lithium-ion batteries'' emissions to global warming has become a relevant concern. The wide range of emission estimates in LCAs from the past decades have made production emissions a topic for debate. This IVL report updates the estimated battery production emissions in global warming

A review of the life cycle carbon footprint of electric vehicle batteries

In terms of battery type, Li-air batteries have a lower carbon footprint than lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and Na-ion batteries [9]. In addition, setting different functional units could lead to different evaluation results. The LFP battery pack displayed a lower environmental burden than the lithium nickel cobalt oxide (NMC) battery pack in mass units, whereas the opposite results

Increase the accuracy of carbon footprint for Li-ion battery

The study shows that the largest part of the carbon footprint of Li-ion batteries (about 80%) is due to the upstream materials, rather than the assembly or usage. The gap in carbon footprint over the lifetime between the battery with carbon-intensive materials and the one with less carbon-intensive materials is 60%. This is mainly due to the
