The Underrated Return Pillar: BYD, Rock Tech Lithium and Mercedes-Benz – Lithium Storage Boom Opening Up Opportunities
Green electromobility is technically ready to go, yet the true Achilles' heel of the electric revolution lies not on the road but in the raw-material supply. While politicians speak of sovereignty, the market is grappling with exploding demand for battery raw materials. This situation is amplified by energy storage for power grids. Anyone who now grasps the bigger picture recognizes the decisive shift in power in the global race between Chinese dominance and the West's drive for independence. This is exactly where the e-car giant BYD, the emerging lithium producer Rock Tech Lithium and the traditional group Mercedes-Benz come in, with opposing but equally trailblazing strategies.

What VW and Mercedes-Benz Must Do Immediately: Lithium as a Constant in Battery Technology – Rock Tech Lithium in an Exciting Phase
Mass layoffs and poor quarterly results are spreading fear in southwestern Germany, the heart of the automotive industry. And rightly so. The German automotive industry faces not only the mammoth task of transformation but also the challenge of sourcing critical battery raw materials. Over 80% of the lithium hydroxide needed in Europe currently comes from Chinese refineries. However, legal requirements such as the European Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) call for the establishment of local structures for mining and processing in order to break the critical dependence on China. A German-Canadian company could offer the solution.

Electromobility and the Structural Risk for BMW, Mercedes, and Volkswagen: Rock Tech Lithium Stock Poised for Revaluation
Electric vehicle sales in Europe continue to rise steadily. In the EU, new registrations of battery-electric passenger vehicles in the first five months of 2026 were up 35.7% compared to the same period last year. The market share of fully electric vehicles increased to 20.0%. In Germany, growth was even stronger at 40.9%, with BEVs reaching a market share of 23.9%. German manufacturers remain among the leaders in producing the most popular models. However, as with all European automakers, a structural risk persists: dependence on China for batteries. Without secure access to lithium and domestic conversion capacity, European automakers cannot fully control their electric-vehicle value chain. China could, at any time, effectively "turn off the tap" for its competitors. And this is where Rock Tech Lithium comes into play. The company has repositioned itself in recent years and aims to cover the value chain all the way down to battery-grade lithium chemicals. The stock could be poised for a spectacular comeback.

Gigawatt Power for AI and Electric Mobility: BMW, BYD, Rock Tech Lithium and Volkswagen in Focus
Current energy market analyses project electricity demand of around 780 TWh for Germany in 2035, representing an increase of approximately 56% compared to 2022. The Fraunhofer Institute estimates electricity demand from electric mobility alone at approximately 260 TWh by 2035. As a rule of thumb: if more than 50% of an upscaled car fleet runs electrically, mobility alone will require roughly an additional 200 to 260 TWh of electricity per year by 2035 — equivalent to around one third of Germany's current total electricity consumption. By comparison, the AI boom represents a different but equally massive load: data centres consumed approximately 415 TWh worldwide in 2024, and according to the IEA, that figure could reach around 945 TWh by 2030. BMW, VW and BYD occupy different positions in the same value chain: they sell vehicles that will increasingly require not only batteries but also a significantly larger and more flexible electricity infrastructure. Lithium remains the key raw material, because every battery — whether LFP, NMC or solid-state — cannot do without the white metal. Accordingly, Europe will need up to 20 times as much lithium by 2035 as it does today, according to industry sources. Rock Tech Lithium intends to make its mark in Canada and Germany and become an important building block in the North Atlantic supply chain. We do the math!

From a Canadian Mine to a German EV: Rock Tech Lithium, BASF, and Volkswagen are Reducing Dependence on China
Electric mobility continues to grow unabated, but the fuel of the future is becoming scarce. Demand for lithium is skyrocketing, while prices are once again heading toward record highs after a slump. European industry faces a critical test between dependence on China and the drive for autonomy. It is precisely in this gap that a window of opportunity opens for savvy investors. It is not the raw material alone that promises returns, but the intelligent integration of mining, refining, and production right on our doorstep. A strategic alliance between Canada and Germany could reshape the market. Three companies occupy the key stages of this value chain: Rock Tech Lithium, BASF, and Volkswagen.

American Lithium, Rock Tech Lithium, Uranium Energy: Without These Raw Materials, the Energy Transition Comes to a Standstill
The global race for technological supremacy, energy security, and artificial intelligence (AI) is intensifying the battle for critical raw materials. Lithium is considered an indispensable component for batteries, electric mobility, and energy storage, while uranium is becoming increasingly important due to the boom in data centers and the global expansion of nuclear energy. Governments are promoting the development of independent supply chains, and investment in strategic raw material projects is growing rapidly. Companies that secure promising deposits early on, build processing capacity, or benefit from government support programs are of particular interest.

Electric Vehicle Sales Are Booming: Taking a Closer Look at Albemarle, Rock Tech Lithium and BYD
The electric vehicle market is booming and may have received an additional boost from the conflict in the Persian Gulf. However, the global picture remains mixed. The strongest growth is taking place in the world's largest automotive market: China. There, the electrification rate has now surpassed the 50% threshold. More than one in two newly registered vehicles in the country is a plug-in. EV growth of 10-15% is forecast for this year. Germany, the world's third-largest automotive market, has also returned to a dynamic growth path following a weak 2024. Sales figures for 2025 stood at more than half a million electric vehicles. If plug-in hybrids are included, total sales exceed 800,000 units, representing an increase of over 40%. The United States, the world's second-largest automotive market, remains the exception, showing weaker development, largely due to political headwinds from Washington. The share of newly sold electric vehicles in the overall market there is estimated at just 7%-8%. Globally, however, battery-powered vehicles remain on the fast track to success, accounting for roughly 25% of the market. In addition, a new sales record was reached in 2025, with more than 20 million electric vehicles sold worldwide, up 20% year over year. This momentum is reason enough to take another look at attractive stocks in the sector. Today, we examine the shares of Albemarle, Rock Tech Lithium, and BYD.

Lithium Makes a Comeback: Processing Is a Bottleneck for Mercedes-Benz and Siemens Energy – Rock Tech Lithium Breaks the Monopoly
With scarce raw material reserves in the West, a more restrictive trade policy, and China still holding a monopoly on raw material processing, the situation surrounding battery-grade raw materials calls for action. After the price of lithium hit a preliminary low in June 2025, "white gold" saw a robust recovery of around 180% by February 2026, reaching a high of USD 10.48 per pound. The real bottleneck, however, is not extraction, but the chemical refinement into high-purity lithium hydroxide monohydrate for battery applications. Since a comprehensive investigation by the US Department of Commerce now classifies lithium supply security as a matter of national security, the development of resilient domestic processing infrastructure has moved to the forefront of industry priorities. The German-Canadian company Rock Tech Lithium plays a crucial role.
