Securing Europe’s battery future: Why China’s LFP export ban must be a catalyst for action
China’s recent decision to restrict exports of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and lithium manganese iron phosphate (LMFP) battery cathode active material technology is more than just a trade move, or only the latest play in an escalating geopolitical game of tariffs and counter-tariffs. It’s nothing less than a wake-up call to energy, mobility, and defence sectors across the globe. For too long, much of the world has operated under the assumption that access to critical battery materials and know-how would remain open and uninterrupted. That illusion is now being shattered, writes Behnam Hormozi.
