The Big Question Facing Canada’s Battery Value Chain:
What Will It Take to Turn Canada’s Mineral Advantage into
Bankable Manufacturing, Supply Security & Circular Recovery?

Canada’s battery opportunity has moved beyond resource potential. As critical minerals, clean power, industrial policy, automotive manufacturing, and recycling capacity converge, the focus is now on which projects can move from announcement to commercial operation.

Battery Value Chain Xchange Canada 2027 brings together the senior stakeholders working through the commercial questions that will define the sector’s next phase: project finance, permitting, materials qualification, manufacturing readiness, supply chain integration, circular recovery, and cross-border market access.

This is where the industry examines what battery value chain leadership actually requires — from mineral development and battery-grade processing to scalable manufacturing, responsible production, and long-term North American supply security.

03

Securing North American Battery Supply Chains

Assess how Canadian projects can strengthen regional battery supply security through material qualification, offtake agreements, cross-border partnerships, logistics, trade alignment, sourcing transparency, and resilient supply chain models.

04

Battery Recycling, Black Mass & Circular Materials

Address the commercial and technical realities of battery recycling, production scrap, black mass processing, recovered lithium, nickel, cobalt, and graphite, and the closed-loop partnerships needed to keep valuable materials within the North American supply chain.

05

Clean, Responsible & Bankable Battery Production

Explore how Canada’s clean power, ESG expectations, lifecycle emissions, traceability, permitting, Indigenous and community engagement, and capital alignment can support responsible, investment-ready battery value chain development.
