Soaring prices of critical battery metals, as observed in the following chart from S&P Global Commodity Insights, are threatening supplier and OEM profit margins. This situation has quickly translated into increased component and vehicle prices, according to new analysis from S&P Global Mobility Auto Supply Chain & Technology Group.
The price of these three metals required in a 60KWh battery, enough for a large family sport utility vehicle, has risen from $1,395 a year ago to more than $7,400 in early March, according to battery group Farasis Energy.
Chang Jung-hoon, an analyst at Samsung Securities, calculated that a 10 per cent rise in nickel prices will lead to a 2.4 per cent rise in the cathode price. If the spot nickel price of $42,995 on March 7 translates directly into battery prices, the cathode will rise by 26 per cent and the price of the whole battery by 6 per cent.
