The market for lithium-ion batteries continues to expand globally: In 2023, sales could exceed the 1 TWh mark for the first time. By 2030, demand is expected to more than triple to over 3 TWh which has many implications for the industry, but also for technology development and the requirements for batteries.
A gigafactory for lithium-ion batteries in France will create jobs and boost the European battery industry to drive cleaner mobility Anastasia Walch-Guinebert has always enjoyed solving problems and figuring out ways to improve things. She also found the continuous innovation in the field of energy transition fascinating.
The lithium-ion battery megafactory is an engine for growth. The selling price for lithium-ion battery NCM cells used in electric vehicles fell from $290/kWh in 2014 to $110/kWh in 2020, a decline of 14.9 per cent a year, primarily due to increased scale of manufacturing.
China once again surged ahead in 2020 by building even more lithium-ion battery megafactories and increasing future capacity. Of the total capacity of all of the lithium-ion battery plants either active or under construction, China accounts for 66.9 per cent, while the US is only forecasted to account for 11.9 per cent.
Lithium-ion batteries are the enabling technology for the 21st century automotive industry and will be a disruptive technology for the 21st century energy and utility sectors—the first widespread energy storage to couple with increasing production of wind and solar power.
SAN JOSE, Calif., and RENO, Nev., Oct. 15, 2024 – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Lyten, the supermaterial applications company and global leader in Lithium-Sulfur batteries, today announced plans to invest more than $1 billion to build the world’s first Lithium-Sulfur battery gigafactory.
