The future of lithium is closely tied to advancements in battery technology. Researchers and manufacturers continuously work towards enhancing lithium-ion batteries' performance, capacity, and safety. From solid-state batteries to new electrode materials, the race for innovation in lithium battery technology is relentless.
The global market for Lithium-ion batteries is expanding rapidly. We take a closer look at new value chain solutions that can help meet the growing demand.
Lithium-ion batteries are at the heart of the electric vehicle revolution. As the world seeks more sustainable transportation options, the EV market is projected to grow exponentially. The International Energy Agency (IEA) expects 50% of all cars sold globally will be electric in 2035.
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.
Companies are investing heavily in lithium recycling technologies that can recover valuable materials from used batteries and reintroduce them into the supply chain, reducing the environmental footprint and the pressure on lithium resources.
