This week’s episode features Frik Els, Editor-at-Large at MINING.com, in conversation with host Adrian Pocobelli on the evolving landscape of battery metals and electric vehicles. Els explains how battery technology, particularly developments emerging from China, is reshaping demand for so-called battery metals. He also discusses the growing popularity of LFP batteries over NCM chemistries, and why sodium-ion batteries could become the next major innovation in the sector. Finally, he shares his outlook on the EV market and explains why Europe may be the next key test for Chinese automakers.

All this and more with host Adrian Pocobelli.
