Two world giants are vying to control this vital resource, US teams up with India to explore critical minerals in third countries New Delhi and Washington are seeking to reduce their dependence on China, which dominates the lithium supply chain. China currently controls nearly 70% of the global lithium supply, and larger shares of cobalt, graphite, and manganese – other minerals vital for green technology. India recently discovered lithium reserves in Jharkhand, Rajasthan, and Jammu and Kashmir, but does not yet produce lithium domestically, relying entirely on imports. Demand for the mineral is soaring in India as it seeks to expand its electric vehicle market, which is projected to grow from $3.21 billion in 2022 to $113.99 billion by 2029. In September, New Delhi unveiled a $1.3 billion PM E-DRIVE scheme to incentivize the adoption of electric cars and two-wheelers. #CriticalMinerals #USIndiaPartnership #LithiumSupply #ElectricVehicles #GreenTechnology #MineralExploration #SustainableEnergy #ChinaDominance #EVMarketGrowth #PMEDRIVE #CleanEnergyTransition #ResourceSecurity #GlobalSupplyChain #BatteryTechnology #CobaltSupply #GraphiteMining #ManganeseResources #IndiaLithiumReserves #TradeAgreements #MineralsSecurityPartnership #AfricaMinerals #SouthAmericaResources #TechForGreenEnergy #ElectricMobility #InvestmentInInnovation #ClimateGoals #FutureOfEnergy
