Battery Metals Report 2021
Who would have thought in the year 2000 that in no less than 36 months, a "weirdo" from South Africa would emerge and turn the entire automotive industry upside down within 20 years? Elon Musk, the eccentric South African, who as a child had been bullied and beaten to unconsciousness because of his fancy ideas and who first made headlines by inventing and selling the payment system PayPal to eBay, had the vision of a purely electric locomotion at the beginning of the 21st century and then, together with some other "weirdoes", founded Tesla Motors on July 1, 2003. He was supposed to trigger a revolution like there has rarely been a similar one in the history of mankind. Within a very short period of time, "weirdoes" became visionaries and Musk became the second richest person on the globe. He is one of the very few who changed or will change the world with their ideas.
But electric locomotion is only one of several aspects of the electrical revolution. The leap from the age of fossil combustion and the most immediate consumption possible to the decentralization of energy production, the corresponding need to store electrical energy on site and, ultimately, a true revolution in mobility has begun, but the electric boom will now really take off, and not only in automobile manufacturing. After more than 100 years of the combustion engine, the next stage of development is finally taking off, and it is called electric mobility and electric storage.
This report provides a wealth of information about the battery metal sector and offers insightful interviews with exclusively selected experts from the industry. The report is completed by the presentation of a number of interesting companies that are suitable for speculation on rising battery metal prices.
