GHG emissions during battery production under electricity mix in China in the next 40 years are predicted. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and environmental burdens in the lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) production stage are essential issues for their sustainable development.
Unlike raw material extraction and processing, most environmental impacts during the battery manufacturing process are directly linked to energy use (on-site combustion and off-site electricity generation), so this section will focus on energy use as the key driver of impacts.
Biological effects are mainly reflected in the accumulation and emission of mercury, copper, lead, and radioactive elements, while pollutants are mainly reflected in the impact of toxic chemical emissions on marine organisms. The METP of the six types of LIBs during battery production is shown in Fig. 14.
