Where Does Tesla Get its Lithium? (Updated 2023)

As the energy transition continues to unfold, US electric vehicle (EV) pioneer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has been making moves to secure supply of the raw materials it needs to meet its production targets.

Lithium in particular has caught the attention of CEO Elon Musk. Back in 2020, the battery metal had a spotlight moment at Tesla’s Battery Day, when Musk shared that the company had bought tenements in the US state of Nevada, and was looking for a new way to produce lithium from clay — a process yet to be proven at commercial scale.

Since then, lithium prices have hit all-time highs and, despite retreating in 2023, have stayed elevated. Prices for other key battery metals have also increased, leading to higher costs for batteries themselves. According to Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, raw materials currently make up about 80 percent of battery costs, up from around 40 percent back in 2015.

US carmaker Ford (NYSE:F) moved ahead on Monday (May 22) to secure supply of lithium, a key battery element needed for the 2 million electric vehicles (EVs) the company hopes to produce by 2026.

As the race to find stable and quality sources of battery raw materials heats up, the Michigan-based company has inked multiple lithium supply deals with companies operating in North America and countries with free trade agreements with the US.

As a result of these deals, Ford will be able to benefit from tax credits under the US Inflation Reduction Act, legislation that kicked off last year to support the buildout of a more resilient domestic EV supply chain.
