Vale's critical support for Tesla

Vale S.A. is a Brazilian multinational corporation and one of the world's largest miners and producers of iron ore and nickel. Vale is also a significant global supplier of other essential metals for the energy transition, including copper and cobalt. The company has pivoted to position itself as a key supplier of "green metals," investing in lower-carbon production methods for nickel—such as using hydropower—to meet the environmental, social, and governance criteria of EV manufacturers.

In 2021, Tesla signed a multi-year nickel supply agreement with Vale, securing a significant volume of Class 1 nickel from its Canadian operations. This high-purity nickel is essential for the cathode chemistry in Tesla's long-range lithium-ion batteries.
