Critical Minerals

The demand for lithium, nickel, and cobalt is surging, positioning critical minerals as a key driver in the global electric vehicle battery supply chain. As industries accelerate the shift toward mobility electrification and global decarbonisation, securing a stable, sustainable supply of these minerals has become one of the most urgent challenges for decision-makers. The Battery Minerals Australia 2026 will explore how the industry can streamline operations, address geopolitical and economic challenges, and optimise costs while reducing environmental impact. As industry leaders come together, the event will examine the role of both policy- and technology-driven solutions in reshaping the EV battery landscape.

EV Battery Supply Chains and Market Evolution

New battery technology breakthroughs, material discoveries, and supply chain strategies are emerging almost every month, reshaping the industry's growth path. As demand increases for sustainable sourcing and ethical extraction, companies are investing significantly to secure long-term access to critical battery minerals. At the Battery Minerals Australia 2026, industry experts will share cutting-edge developments in battery material innovation, refining techniques, and responsible mining practices. Leading corporations are scaling up efforts to improve efficiency, increase productivity, and drive innovation across the sector.

Critical Minerals and the Future of EV Batteries

The EV battery industry stands at a pivotal moment, as the growth of green energy accelerates technological advancement. The key challenge now is balancing the rising demand with resource sustainability, alongside ethical, legal, and regulatory considerations. Major investments are being directed toward next-generation battery chemistries, recycling initiatives, and supply diversification to manage risk in a complex global landscape. The question is no longer if the transition will happen, but how quickly and effectively companies can integrate sustainable supply chains.

The Battery Minerals Australia 2026 will explore how industry leaders are adopting innovative approaches to manage trade-offs between resource availability, cost, and environmental impact. The broader macroeconomic landscape will also be a focus, with discussions examining the geo-economic factors shaping policy decisions and influencing global investment trends.
