The global lithium-ion battery market was valued at USD 64.84 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 79.44 billion in 2024 to USD 446.85 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 23.33% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific dominated the lithium-ion battery market with a market share of 48.45% in 2023.


The COVID-19 pandemic affected growth of this market during 2020. The outbreak of COVID-19 has restricted the supply of batteries. The key battery component is mainly available in Asia Pacific, but the pandemic has over-exposed the dependency of raw materials on the region. Lithium and cobalt serve key functions in battery cathodes and electrolytes. China dominates the production of elements and controls approximately 80% of the global supply chain of these materials. Many countries across the world have imposed travel restrictions, which have impacted the flow of raw materials and many power plants were shut down worldwide, which impacted the market.


Li-ion battery, also called as LIB, is a rechargeable battery used in laptops, cellphones, and hybrid & electric cars. Li-ion battery usage is growing across various applications owing to its lightweight, high energy density to increase battery life and ability to recharge.


LATEST LITHIUM-ION BATTERY MARKET TRENDS


Growing Sales of Electric Vehicles to Mitigate Climate Change


Electric vehicles have reduced the climate impact when compared to internal combustion engines. Government bodies across the globe are approaching a greener and pollution-free mobility as passenger and commercial electric vehicles are changing trends for future transportation, which will certainly boost lithium-ion battery market growth. Electric vehicles companies, such as Tesla, have implemented the usage of these batteries in cars. Europe has strictly imposed emissions regulations & norms and implemented major public electric mobility transportation projects.


Rising Inclination Toward Energy Projects to Drive the Industry Growth 


The growing interest in keeping the environment clean has encouraged the growth of renewable energy projects, such as solar power plants and nuclear power plants, and wind energy projects,  contributing to the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries.


Lithium-ion batteries are one of the favored options for renewable energy storage. They are widely seen as one of the main solutions to recompense for the intermittency of wind and sun energy. Utilities around the world have ramped up their storage capabilities using Li-ion supersized batteries, huge packs which can store anywhere between 100 to 800 megawatts (MW) of energy. In 2023, California-based Moss Landing's energy storage facility is reportedly the world’s largest, with a total capacity of 750 MW/3000 MWh.



LITHIUM-ION BATTERY MARKET DRIVING FACTORS


Increased Adoption of Batteries in Power Grid and Energy Storage Systems Play a Key Role in Market


Implementing strict government regulation to regulate rising pollution levels enhances the industries to use these batteries. The power industry is working to produce renewable energy and store it for the future. Low cost, low-self discharge rate, and minimal installation space are some of the key factors driving the adoption of Li-ion batteries in smart grid and energy storage systems. Since these batteries are more resistant to high temperatures, they are ideal for use in remote areas and thermal control applications. For example, in July 2021, Siemens Smart Infrastructure and German Grid Operator company was planning to develop a 100 MW lithium-ion battery storage facility.


Declining Prices of Li-ion Batteries Have Catalyzed Adoption in Various Sector


The major factor restraining the adoption of these batteries from 1990 was its prices. Li-ion batteries contain many components, and the main component of any LIB was its cell, which accounts for 50% of its cost. However, recent developments by LIB manufacturing companies have helped in declining prices of these batteries, which will further reduce in future. The declining prices of components and the adoption of advanced technologies to increase battery capacity are key factors that increase the adoption of lithium-ion batteries.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Growing Demand for Other Batteries is Hindering Market Growth


The increasing demand for other batteries, such as lead-acid batteries, sodium- nickel chloride, flow batteries, and lithium-air batteries, in consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems is projected to hinder the growth of these batteries.
