Electra Battery Materials: Strengthening North America's Battery Supply Chain

Reducing reliance on foreign cobalt by revitalizing the North American battery supply chain

Electra Battery Materials is taking a strategic step towards reducing North America’s dependence on foreign cobalt sources, particularly from China, which supplies over 90% of the cobalt used in batteries today. Recently awarded $20 million by the U.S. Department of Defense, Electra is focused on creating a sustainable, domestic supply chain for battery materials. This initiative not only supports the electric vehicle industry but also aims to bolster the continent’s industrial base by ensuring reliable access to critical materials. Electra's commitment to establishing a local supply chain aligns with the broader push for energy independence and economic resilience.
