Beyond the battery: EV value chain

Contact Us

The future of mobility is electric

The EV value chain encompasses everything from upstream to downstream, raw materials to dealerships, charging stations, EV component recycling, and more. The transition to electric will impact everything an OEM, supplier, investor, or other auto stakeholder touches. Your strategy needs to go well beyond just the battery — creating a holistic strategy requires informed analysis, data-fueled insights, and a comprehensive outlook on the future of the automotive industry. That’s why we developed our EV value chain projections, models, benchmarks, and other insights to help you navigate the complex future of the EV landscape.
