                         The Supply Chain for

                     Electric Vehicle Batteries

                             David   Coffin  and Jeff Horowitz

       Abstract

       Electric vehicles (EVs) are a growing part of the passenger vehicle industry due to
       improved  technology, customer interest in reducing carbon footprints, and policy
       incentives. EV batteries are the key determinant of both the range and cost of the
       vehicle. This paper explains the importance of EV batteries, describes the
       structure of the EV battery supply chain, examines current limitations in trade
       data for EV batteries, and estimates the value added to EV batteries for EVs sold
       in the United States.









Keywords:  motor  vehicles, cars, passenger vehicles, electric vehicles, vehicle batteries, lithium-
ion batteries, supply chain, value chain.
