The United States' consumption of nickel for energy transition-related purposes amounted to some * metric tons in 2023, the most out of the three critical minerals compared. By comparison, energy transition-related lithium and cobalt consumption in the U.S. amounted to just * and metric tons, respectively, that year. It is forecast that nickel consumption in the U.S. for energy transition-related technologies in 2035 will amount to over ** metric tons.
