Lithium carbonate prices in China rose to 204,500 yuan per tonne, as rising demand for electric vehicles underpinned costs for raw materials, while supply continues to tighten.

Electric vehicle deliveries in China, the world’s top lithium-ion battery importer, is expected to double last year’s level to around 3 million units.

Rising lithium carbonate prices have added on average $470 to the cost of producing an automobile’s battery, as lithium carbonate prices have already increased by over 320% this year.
