Copper and nickel for the future

Copper seems to be recovering in price terms. Not so beneficial are the recession worries. It should not be overlooked that modern technologies will ensure immense copper demand. In China, demand for copper from the construction sector is rather disappointing at the moment. But this could prompt the government to step up stimulus measures. More investment and thus more demand for industrial metals could then be expected. Not only copper, but also nickel is one of the most important raw materials for the energy transition and also for electric cars.

An important nickel-producing country is Russia, especially as far as high-grade nickel is concerned, which is needed for the e-car batteries. And here, there is a threat of export restrictions. If Moscow were to restrict nickel exports, this would hit the European industry hard - and drive up the price. The EU imports around 40 percent of its high-grade nickel from Russia. Although nickel supplies are increasing in Indonesia, an important producer country, many expect a nickel deficit from 2027 at the latest due to strong demand.

This is because electromobility is continuing its triumphant advance. Around 14 million electric vehicles are expected to be sold this year, 35 percent more than in 2022. This would mean that 18 percent of vehicles sold would be electric, compared with only four percent in 2020. In 2022, almost one in three cars sold in China was electric. And in Germany, almost 44 percent of all newly registered passenger cars in the first three months were equipped with an alternative drive system.
