AI Customer ServiceThe manufacturing process begins with building the chassis using a combination of aluminium and steel; emissions from smelting these remain the same in both ICE and EV. However, the environmental impact of battery production begins to change when we consider the manufacturing process of the battery in the latter type.
The use of batteries in the power and automobile industries globally is changing how we use and dispose of batteries. From batteries that power little devices to lithium-ion battery packs within electric vehicles, the industry continues to seek smaller and longer-lasting batteries while volume increases.
For batteries, a number of pollutive agents has been already identified on consolidated manufacturing trends, including lead, cadmium, lithium, and other heavy metals. Moreover, the emerging materials used in battery assembly may pose new concerns on environmental safety as the reports on their toxic effects remain ambiguous.
Batteries ending up in landfills add to the environmental footprint. While manufacturing has the biggest footprint, powering batteries also contributes to environmental degradation, especially in developing economies like India. This is because the source of electricity used to power them determines how eco-friendly an EV really is.
Although it's easy to praise batteries produced with energy storage in mind, there’s much more to consider across their lifecycle other than emission reductions when they power our EVs. When there’s a lack of regulation around manufacturing methods and waste management, battery production hurts the planet in many ways.
If the world continues making batteries as it does today, the emissions of this transmission would be equivalent to “pretty much the full carbon footprint of Spain.” Making an average battery today can release over 100 kg of CO 2 per kilowatt hour of energy provided across its lifetime, according to Carlsson.
