  3. 7. Explorative Scenarios for Future Lithium Supplies and Demand

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Aksel Rahman; [2023]
    Keywords : lithium mining; lithium future production; Gompertz models; Richards models; Logistic models;

    Abstract : Because of its specific qualities, lithium is a key element for making lithium-ion batteries, which is of great relevance since the battery sector is the fastest growing user of lithium to date and with the transition towards a fully electrified transportation sector due to the current climate agenda and an even bigger increase in demand for lithium is anticipated for the coming decades. The two main sources for lithium to date are mines and brines, with brine water composing around 87 % of the world’s lithium reserves in terms of contained lithium. READ MORE
