Nope - the cobalt is a small part of the cost of a Li-Ion battery.

My latest posts related to Mag- sulfur and Zn batteries and new technologies of anode by metal and crystal deposition with energy density 5 to 6 times higher than Li-ion is the answer.

Mg- S has a theoretical limit of 1,750 Kwh/kg or thereabout compared to today Li-Ion of 260 Kwh/kg that TESLA is using.
