The Emerging Cobalt Challenge - RCS briefing paperRCS Global
The next few years will see worldwide consumption of cobalt rise signifcantly as nascent demand from the electric vehicle market comes on line. For both electric vehicle and tech manufacturers, cobalt forms an essential ingredient of the ubiquitous lithium-ion battery in cars, mobiles and computers.
But there is a catch. While demand is rising, the worldwide supply and future reserves of cobalt are increasingly concentrated into one major market: the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
This market produces 60% of the world’s cobalt supply, but suffers from crumbling infrastructure and signifcant human rights challenges. These challenges are increasingly putting companies in the cobalt supply chain under scrutiny from
campaigners, regulators and the media. It is within this context that companies must now secure their supply chains of cobalt-based, lithiumion batteries. Simply put, the battery technology
which is central to the imminent large-scale commercialisation of the electric vehicle industry and the revolution in consumer technology is dependent on Congolese supply to meet demand.
This briefing paper, derived from RCS Global’s own recent research on Congolese cobalt supply chains, aims to:
• Provide insight on the risks associated with
DRC production that represents approximately
60% of global cobalt output and half the world’s
known reserves;
• Unpack the associated regulatory challenges
linked to DRC cobalt;
• Provide a road map for companies seeking to
mitigate their risk exposure.
