Abstract

The demand for electric vehicles is predicted to increase drastically mainly due to climate concerns. Lithium and cobalt, two metals used in the battery for electric vehicles have therefore gained more attention as there is uncertainty regarding future availability. The prices of [...]

Abstract

In this study, we develop a method for calculating electric vehicle lithium-ion battery pack performance and cost. To begin, we construct a model allowing for calculation of cell performance and material cost using a bottom-up approach starting with real-world material costs. It thus [...]
