2017 is 'Tipping Point' for EVs

“In September 2016 we [BHP] published a blog and we [BHP] set the question - could 2017 be the year of the electric vehicle revolution?” he said in an interview."

“Yes, 2017 is the revolution year we [BHP] have been speaking about. And copper is the metal of the future.”

Balhuizen said he expected the impact of that change would be felt first in copper, where supply - with no new major discoveries in the last 20 years - will struggle to match increased demand.

The market, he said, may have underestimated the impact on copper demand of what will be a dramatic change, given fully electric vehicles require four times as much copper as cars that run on combustion engines.
