Driven by these requirements, a cost model for a large-scale battery cell factory is developed. The model relies on the process-based cost modelling technique (PBCM) and includes more than 250 parameters. Based on this cost model, directions are provided, how minimum costs can be achieved reflecting current and future state of technology.
The industry is projected to grow by 30% per year until 2030 4. A planetary-scale energy transition is well underway, requiring unprecedented volumes of battery-powered energy storage. However, the global battery production ramp is threatened by looming challenges.
The rise in battery production faces challenges from manufacturing complexity and sensitivity, causing safety and reliability issues. This Perspective discusses the challenges and opportunities for high-quality battery production at scale.
Ellingsen et al. (2014) collected data for a LIB production facility operating at small-scale, i.e., approximately 70 MWh of annual battery capacity production, and modeled it using Ecoinvent v2.2.
Herein, to provide guidance on the identification of the best starting points to reduce production costs, a bottom-up cost calculation technique, process-based cost modeling (PBCM), for battery cell production is reproduced and validated by drawing on a consistent dataset of a real battery cell production plant.
The process cost share of Cell Production remains at the same magnitude (36%). Taking all the results into account, for cost reduction in optimized large-scale battery cell factories, the focus should be on the process steps Mixing, Coating & Drying, Stacking, Formation & Final sealing and Aging & Final Control.
