Lithium Ion Battery Market in APAC, By Type and Country, 2024

the overall lithium ion battery market is expected to grow from USD 37.4 billion in 2018 to USD 92.2 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 16.2%. Factors such as increasing demand for plug-in vehicles, growing need for automation and battery-operated material-handling equipment in industries, growing demand for smart devices and other industrial goods, and high requirement of lithium-ion batteries for various industrial applications are driving the growth of the lithium ion battery market.

“APAC is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period”

The market mainly comprises China and India, which have a huge potential for many application areas within the lithium ion battery market. China being a global automotive manufacturing hub holds immense potential for the growth of the market. Increase in the production of electric vehicles and lithium ion batteries used in vehicles is driving the market in China. Furthermore, China is also one of the world's leading producers of electronic devices. This is expected to drive the lithium ion battery market across multiple applications in China. Also, the presence of a number of electronic manufacturers such as Panasonic (Japan), Sony Corp. (Japan), Samsung SDI (South Korea), and LG Electronics (South Korea) in the region is one of the key factors driving the market for lithium ion batteries in APAC.

Key Market Players

Some major companies operating in the global lithium ion battery market are BYD Company (China), LG Chem (South Korea), Panasonic (Japan), Samsung SDI (South Korea), BAK Group (China), GS Yuasa (Japan), Hitachi (Japan), Johnson Controls (Ireland), Toshiba (Japan), Lithium Werks (The Netherlands), CALB (China), Saft Groupe, (France), VARTA Storage (Germany), Farasis Energy (California), and Sila Nanotechnologies (California).

LG Chem has an energy solution division that works on developing differentiated materials for automotive and mobile batteries with integration of the latest technology. Under its energy solution segment, it provides mobile batteries, automotive batteries, and energy storage systems. Under its mobile batteries division, it delivers cylindrical, prismatic, polymer batteries for mobile devices, electric tools, electric bicycles, and smart watches. LG Chem plans to build a 41,300 m2 sized production base in Wroclaw, Poland, by investing USD 380 million in its Polish subsidiary, LG Chem Wroclaw Energy. After the completion of production base in 2018, it will have capacity to supply lithium-ion batteries for 100,000 electric vehicles every year resulting into the production capacity for 280,000 electronic vehicles by leveraging company’s production system (Korea, US, China, and Poland).

Panasonic Corporation undertakes various strategic investments, which sum up around 1 trillion Yen (~USD 9 billion), and has spent part of this total since FY 2016 to achieve sustainable growth in sales and profit. In FY 2018, the company’s lithium-ion battery plant commenced operation inside Tesla’s Gigafactory in the US. The company’s plant is in charge of producing the high performance cylindrical “2170 cell” used in Tesla’s new model 3 electric vehicles and energy storage system. The company is planning to continue investing capital in FY 2019 to achieve annual production capacity of 35 GWh.
