It’s no secret that copper is a backbone metal of our modern society, some view it as an indicator of economic health, and now it’s the catalyst for the EV revolution. Copper’s high electrical conductivity, durability and malleability make copper the perfect metal not only for electric vehicles but EV charging stations and the entire electrical grid. While the charger itself does not have much copper in it, the wires used to connect the charger to the electrical panel as well as the charging cable itself are the main sources of copper. Wood Mackenzie estimates by 2030, there will be over 20 million EV charging points globally, consuming 250% more copper than in 2019.
