Our price forecasting can inform project incentive pricing by providing insights into future market conditions. This can help to motivate the supply of new battery raw materials by making it clear to potential investors and producers that there is a strong demand for these materials and that prices are likely to remain high in the future. Additionally, governments and other organizations can use SFA's price forecasting to inform policies and regulations that support the development of new battery metal mines and production facilities.
