E piʻi aʻe ke kumukūʻai o ka hana ʻana i nā kaʻa uila i nā makahiki ʻehā e hiki mai ana, e like me ka hōʻike hou, ma muli o ka liʻiliʻi o kahi kumu waiwai nui e pono ai e hana.nā ʻōhua kaʻa uila.
"E hiki mai ana ke kai eʻe o ke koi," wahi a Sam Jaffe, ka hope pelekikena o nā hoʻonā pākaukau ma ka hui noiʻi ʻo E Source ma Boulder, Colorado."pākaukaumākaukau ʻia ka ʻoihana."
Ua hāʻule ke kumu kūʻai o nā pākaʻi kaʻa uila i nā makahiki i hala iho nei i ka piʻi ʻana o ka hana honua. E manaʻo ʻo E Source ʻo ke kumukūʻai maʻamau o kahi pākaukau i kēia lā he $128 no kilowatt-hola a hiki ke piʻi ma kahi o $110 no ka kilowatt-hola i ka makahiki aʻe.
Akā ʻaʻole lōʻihi ka emi ʻana: Manaʻo ʻo E ​​Source e piʻi ana nā kumukūʻai pākaukau i ka 22% mai 2023 a 2026, e piʻi ana ma $138 no kWh, ma mua o ka hoʻi ʻana i kahi emi mau - hiki ke haʻahaʻa e like me ka kWh - i 2031 $ 90 kWh .
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Jaffe, ʻo ka piʻi ʻana i manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia ka hopena o ka ulu ʻana o ka noi no nā kumu waiwai nui, e like me ka lithium, pono e hana i nā ʻumi miliona o nā pā.
"Aia ka hapa maoli o ka lithium, a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hapa o ka lithium.Inā ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻopaʻa i ka lithium, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i nā pila, "wahi āna.
Manaʻo ʻo E Source e hiki i ka piʻi ʻana o nā kumukūʻai pākaukau ke koi i ke kumukūʻai o nā kaʻa uila i kūʻai ʻia ma 2026 a ma waena o $ 1,500 a me $ 3,000 no kēlā me kēia kaʻa.
Manaʻo ʻia ke kūʻai aku ʻana o nā kaʻa uila ma US ma mua o 2 miliona ma ia manawa, e like me ka wānana hope loa mai ka hui kūkākūkā LMC Automotive.
Ke aʻo nui nei nā luna kaʻa i ka pono e hana hou aku i nā mea koʻikoʻi i nā kaʻa uila. Ua kāhea ʻo Ford CEO Jim Farley i ka mahina i hala aku nei no ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka mining a puni ka hui ʻana o ka F-150 Lightning.
“Pono mākou i nā laikini mining.Pono mākou e hana i nā precursors a me nā laikini hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka US, a pono mākou i ke aupuni a me ka hui pilikino e hana pū a lawe mai i ʻaneʻi, "i ʻōlelo ai ʻo Farley iā CNBC.
Ua koi ʻo Tesla CEO Elon Musk i ka ʻoihana mining e hoʻonui i ka nickel mining ma mua o 2020.
"Inā maikaʻi ʻoe i ka nickel ma kahi ʻano pili i ke kaiapuni, e hāʻawi ana ʻo Tesla iā ʻoe i kahi ʻaelike nui a lōʻihi," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo Musk ma kahi kūkā kūkā o Iulai 2020.
ʻOiai ua ʻae nā luna o ka ʻoihana a me nā alakaʻi o ke aupuni e hana hou ʻia no ka loaʻa ʻana o nā lako maka, ua ʻōlelo ʻo E source e haʻahaʻa loa ka helu o nā pāhana mining.
"Me nā kumukūʻai lithium ma kahi o 900% i nā mahina he 18 i hala iho nei, ua manaʻo mākou e wehe nā mākeke kapikala i nā puka wai a kūkulu i nā hanana lithium hou.Ma kahi o kēia mau hoʻopukapuka kālā, ʻo ka hapa nui o ia mai Kina a hoʻohana ʻia i loko o ke kaulahao lako Kina, "i ʻōlelo ai ka hui ma kāna hōʻike.
ʻO ka ʻikepili he kiʻi paʻi manawa maoli * Hoʻopaneʻe ʻia ka ʻikepili ma kahi o 15 mau minuke.
