Podcast - Battery Materials: where are prices heading across the value chain

The battery materials market is becoming increasingly differentiated. While power battery and energy storage demand continues to support the market, lithium, cathode materials, anode materials, electrolytes, copper foil and aluminum foil are facing very different supply-demand and cost dynamics.

In our latest episode of Mysteel Commodity Flux, Vincent Yan, Director of the Renewable Energy Research Institute at Mysteel, takes a closer look at the key factors shaping battery material prices.

From lithium inventory and future supply expectations, to LFP capacity ramp-up, anode raw material costs, LiPF₆ supply, and high-end foil capacity, the discussion goes beyond what is happening in the market to explore what these changes could mean for prices.

What should market participants watch next?
