The thing is many of these predictions don't take new innovations into account, it might take a spell to get from the lab to industrial use, but the high potential profits and government incentives can compress that timeframe considerably for mining, extracting and building batteries. After the lessons with Russia, Europe and energy, Biden isn't about to make America dependent on China for anything and he has a list of shit with Lithium and rare earths on it, so does the EU. There will be a lot of batteries on the market and several kinds of them will be lithium based, but there are likely to be other alternatives too based on sodium, zinc and aluminum for small scale use including EVs. Already we have vastly improved regular Li-ion cells, LFP, LMFP cells and now solid-state and silicon-based anodes, of a couple of types and sodium batteries too, which are expected to improve to current Li-ion levels over a couple of generations. The breakthroughs in battery tech are in the news daily, many solving roadblocks in alternate chemistries or in production and there are new battery factories announced regularly, they will need raw materials.
