Which country has the best lithium-ion battery supply chain?

LONDON, 13 May 2025 – China has overtaken Canada for the top spot in BloombergNEF’s Global Lithium-Ion Battery Supply Chain Ranking, an annual assessment that rates 30 countries on their potential to build a secure, reliable and sustainable supply chain.

Does Europe have a battery supply chain potential?

Last year, the global battery industry was marked by oversupply, shrinking profit margins and escalating trade tensions. Meanwhile, Europe’s battery supply chain potential showed signs of regression. Of the 11 European countries in the ranking, only two – the Czech Republic and Turkey – improved, while five held their positions and four declined.

Why are lithium and nickel market balances a concern in 2030-2040?

The lithium and nickel market balances for battery-grade products raise concern for raw material availability in 2030-2040, due to lithium’s explosive demand growth and nickel’s slower development on the supply side.
