Akasapu and Hehenberger, (2023) found similar conclusion that Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Abiotic Depletion Potential (ADP) are critical factor for environmental impacts . The current findings also reveal that climate change (fossil) contribute the major environmental impacts during LCA of lithium ion batteries.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of lithium-oxygen Li−O 2 battery showed that the system had a lower environmental impact compared to the conventional NMC-G battery, with a 9.5 % decrease in GHG emissions to 149 g CO 2 eq km −1 .
The Life Cycle Energy Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Lithium-Ion Batteries: A Study with Focus on Current Technology and Batteries for Light-Duty Vehicles The importance of recyclability for the environmental performance of battery systems
Life cycle impacts are dominated by the operation phase. Battery impacts are driven by metal supply (copper and aluminum) and process energy. Lithium components do not contribute significantly to ADP impacts. Higher impacts are associated with cathodes containing cobalt and nickel (NMC) compared to LMO and LFP.
Two studies incorporate battery disposal as part of environmental impact assessment [ 40, 42 ]. Other EOL pathways considered include low-value materials recovery [ 41] and joining a commingled electronic waste stream with other batteries [ 64, 25 ].
By providing a nuanced understanding of the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of lithium-based batteries, the framework guides policymakers, manufacturers, and consumers toward more informed and sustainable choices in battery production, utilization, and end-of-life management.
