FORECAST SUMMARY

The volume of electric vehicle battery pack shipments will reach 30 million in 2027; from just 10 million in 2022.

• Falling vehicle costs, often directly caused by government subsidies, and increasing awareness around the environmental impact of current mobility services are key drivers behind the growth in electric vehicle battery production.

• This growth will be strongest within the commercial segment, with commercial electric vehicle battery pack shipments growing from 1.4 million in 2022 to over 7 million by 2027.

• Mass electrification of fleet vehicles is required for meeting corporate decarbonisation goals and will drive investment into electric vehicles from enterprises. In turn, this provides an opportunity for manufacturers to develop batteries designed for energy-intensive commercial use cases.

• For electric vehicles to reach mass adoption across commercial use cases, including heavy goods haulage and passenger transport, scaling the production of new battery technologies is essential. This includes solid state batteries and new chemical mixes.

• The most pressing issue for electric vehicle adoption is the rare earth minerals required in battery production, including cobalt, which is difficult to source, in terms of both cost and the ethics around procurement.

• Accordingly, manufacturers must rapidly move to new, higher capacity technologies including solid-state batteries to unlock energy intensive use cases. However, these changes in technologies must continue to prioritise the sustainability goals electrification is based upon.
