Abstract: Abstract With the spread of electric vehicles in recent years, the supply chain of Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has become a very important issue. The rapid rise in demand for electric vehicles also introduces some supply chain problems in LIBs. In this chapter, the current and future problems in LIB supply chain processes are addressed. It is seen that supply problems may arise with the increase in demand for materials such as cobalt and lithium, which are basically used in battery production. In this context, LIB recycling processes are very important. In addition, various studies on this topic focus on minimizing sustainability problems. It is important for future research to consider technological transformations from a cost and sustainability perspective. The holistic LIB supply chain processes need to carefully consider the dynamically changing electronic vehicle market, considering concerns such as collaborations, political influences, safety, and security.
