Nickel is increasingly recognized as a strategic metal crucial for powering future technologies, especially in the fields of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy. As a primary component in high-performance lithium-ion batteries, nickel provides higher energy density and greater storage capacity, which are critical for extending the range and efficiency of EVs. This is driving a surge in demand as the world transitions toward cleaner energy solutions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global sales of electric vehicles are projected to rise dramatically, reaching over 50 million units by 2030, further intensifying the need for nickel to support this growth.¹ As governments and industries prioritize decarbonization efforts, securing a stable supply of nickel has become a strategic imperative for many nations.
In addition to its role in EV batteries, nickel is essential in renewable energy technologies, such as energy storage systems and wind turbines, due to its excellent corrosion resistance and strength. These characteristics are vital for developing durable, long-lasting infrastructure that can support sustainable energy transitions. As governments worldwide set ambitious climate targets, nickel’s importance continues to grow. Countries with substantial nickel reserves, such as Indonesia, have recognized this strategic advantage and are implementing policies to enhance domestic production and processing capabilities, positioning themselves as key players in the global energy transition.²
