Geographic distribution of critical minerals for Li-ion batteries. The electric vehicle battery accounts for 30–40% of the value of the vehicle. [1] Around one-third of the battery's weight is the housing and cooling system. The cathode makes up another 20% and the anode another 10%. [2] Three types of batteries dominate the electric vehicle ...
