Battery Materials Market Forecasts to 2030 - Global Analysis By Type (Lithium Ion, Lead-Acid and Other Types), Material (Separator, Cathode, Electrolyte, Anode and Other Materials), Application and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Battery Materials Market is accounted for $66.81 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $140.46 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period. Battery materials are the basic components and raw materials used in the production of batteries. They are mostly made of metals like nickel, cobalt, and lithium. They come from upstream mining operations that purify battery metals from mineral ores or saltwater brines. Electronic gadgets benefit from high energy density battery materials. They have a large storage capacity and high specific energy. Battery packs are the final products, and they are used in many different end markets, including the automotive, consumer electronics, and energy storage industries.
According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) review report, 410 million units of smart phones and over 231 thousand units of electric two wheelers are expected to be sold in India by 2025.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Increasing demand for electric vehicles
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the most extensively used EV technology. A typical car LIB has a cathode made of lithium (Li), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni), and an anode made of graphite and different cell and pack components including aluminum and copper. The demand for battery raw materials is rising as batteries have a low self-heating rate and are especially useful in electric vehicles. The increased efforts to decrease greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the implementation of high-speed and sophisticated charging stations, are likely to improve electric vehicle sales and hence the battery material industry.
Restraint:
Inadequate charging infrastructure
Launching of passenger electric vehicles would be challenging due to inadequate charging infrastructure. The majority of electric cars utilize lithium ion batteries, therefore the availability of charging infrastructure is a crucial component for the industry's viability. Due to a lack of EV charging infrastructure, EVs can only function in a certain geographic region. The grid's power demand becomes more unequal as a result of improper charging station placement, which leads to poor power quality, greater power loss, and decreased power stability. Voltage drops brought on by errors or switching operations could hinder market expansion.
Opportunity:
Raising usage of energy storage devices
Better usage of renewable energy is made possible by energy storage devices. It is essential to utilize batteries to store this power so that it is available whenever you need it. They minimize electricity costs and carbon footprint. The energy storage devices are less dependent on the grid. When there are disturbances, they can supply backup power since they are combined with sophisticated software. These energy storage systems offer advantages including financial savings, emergency backup power, and enhancing solar self-supply. These several elements are accelerating the market expansion.
Threat:
Environmental concerns regarding lead-acid battery materials
Lead, the primary component of lead-acid batteries, is a hazardous substance. In the PRC, it is thought that between 44% and 70% of the lead from lead acid batteries is wasted and dumped into the environment. There will always be pollution levels that are several times higher than those of gasoline. Additionally, they may result in neurological damage, decreased physical and mental growth, and difficulty with focus and learning for the individual exposed to them. Such material usage calls for specialized knowledge, safety measures, and appropriate instruction. These factors are impeding market expansion.
COVID-19 Impact:
All facets of the supply chain have been extensively impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. The energy storage industry experienced challenges with manufacturing, shipping hold-ups, project expansion, and R&D. Sales of battery-related products and the rate at which they are produced have both decreased. As a result of the restrictions on the import and export of raw materials for batteries, there were also significant disruptions in supply and logistics. The difficulties experienced by Chinese manufacturers resulted in fewer orders and unpaid invoices. Big battery makers ran the danger of seeing their sales decline; therefore larger businesses realigned their clientele by snatching up some of the small manufacturers' customers in order to generate enough cash flow.
The lithium-ion segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period:
The lithium-ion segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to its high energy density, low discharge frequency, and voltage capacity. Currently, the most popular energy storage technology is lithium-ion batteries. Lithium, graphite, cobalt, and manganese are all components of lithium-ion batteries. Compared to lead-acid batteries, their lifespan can be up to 10 times longer. Compared to conventional batteries, lithium-ion batteries are more compact and potent. They withstand repeated charging and discharging effectively. Their quick charging and anti-self-discharge features are promoting the segment's expansion.
The cathode segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period:
The cathode segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period. The performance of rechargeable batteries is highly dependent on the cathode materials. The electric charge flow is facilitated by the cathode. While oxidation (loss of electrons) happens at the anode, reduction (gain of electrons) takes place at the cathode, which is the positive electrode. The main active elements in cathode materials are cobalt, nickel, and manganese. The benefits of being cost-effective, exceptional performance, cobalt-free, and low in nickel are propelling the segment's growth in addition to these other benefits.
Region with largest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. China, Japan, and South Korea use a significant proportion of battery raw materials since they constitute the world's largest battery manufacturers. Large FDIs have been drawn to this area as a result of the availability of inexpensive production inputs and favourable government policies, and the existence of several industrial facilities has contributed to the region's supremacy. Additionally, the market for battery materials in the area is probably being accelerated by the rising usage of portable and rechargeable battery packs in consumer electronics products like laptops, smart phones, and other portable electronic devices.
Region with highest CAGR:
North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to its technical improvements. The usage of consumer electronics in this region has been rapidly increasing. Electric automobiles and bicycles are being adopted quickly. Investors in the electric car and renewable energy sectors are also receiving help from the government. The market in North America is maturing quickly due to a combination of factors including severe government laws regulating car emissions, high consumer discretionary income, and growing consumer awareness of sustainability and environmental preservation.
