Lithium Demand May Exceed Expectations
Reflecting the scale of the impending energy revolution, respected independent commodity forecaster Roskill tripled its demand forecast for lithium through 2026. Two years ago, Roskill forecast demand would increase to 328,000 metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent by 2026; now the commodities expert has revised the outlook and expects demand to explode to more than 1 million metric tons by then.
