AI Customer ServiceDriven by these requirements, a cost model for a large-scale battery cell factory is developed. The model relies on the process-based cost modelling technique (PBCM) and includes more than 250 parameters. Based on this cost model, directions are provided, how minimum costs can be achieved reflecting current and future state of technology.
The high ratio of the cost elements Material (77% in the Optimized Scenario) and Material-Scrap (6% in the Optimized Scenario) to total costs show that large-scale battery-cell production is highly sensitive to net material input quantities, scrap rates and costs of purchased materials.
Especially driven by the expanded production of electrical vehicles (EVs) with the overall goal of minimizing vehicular CO2 and NO 2 emissions, annual global lithium-ion battery capacity demand is expected to increase from 160 GWh cell energy in 2018 to >1000 GWh cell energy in 2030.
To ensure cost-efficient battery cell manufacturing, transparency is necessary regarding overall manufacturing costs, their cost drivers, and the monetary value of potential cost reductions. Driven by these requirements, a cost model for a large-scale battery cell factory is developed.
The process cost share of Cell Production remains at the same magnitude (36%). Taking all the results into account, for cost reduction in optimized large-scale battery cell factories, the focus should be on the process steps Mixing, Coating & Drying, Stacking, Formation & Final sealing and Aging & Final Control.
The battery industry could become a frontrunner in accelerating deep decarbonization of the grid, despite its additional energy demand, if companies procured time-matched clean energy to meet all their needs. Establishing full supply-chain transparency and compliance.
