Australian mining industry\u00a0 well positioned to reap from electric vehicles push<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The push to electric vehicles(EV) is gathering pace. Since 2010, more than 14 countries and 20 cities have proposed banning the sale of fossil fuel powered passenger vehicles in the near future. Since 2011, the global EV market has grown by 40 \u2013 70% y-o-y with more than 2.1 million EVs sold in 2019. VW has announced a Euro 25 billion program to develop a comprehensive range from affordable to luxury vehicles. \u00a0It is expected that EV penetration rate will reach 13% by 2025[1]<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

A key component of the EV is the battery. Australia has 9 of the 10 metal components that goes to make these batteries and Australian mining industry is positioning itself to become the global powerhouse to compete with China.<\/span><\/p>\n

This presentation will go through the drivers for EV batteries, stationary batteries, key minerals, geographies, production costs and market values and environmental costs in trying to reduce the impact on climate change.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
