 According to the new market research report "Lithium-Ion Battery Market by Type (Li-NMC, LFP, LCO, LTO), Power Capacity (0-3,000 mAh, 3,000 mAh-10,000 mAh, 10,000 mAh-60,000 mAh, above 60,000 mAh), Industry (Consumer Electronics, Automotive, Industrial), Voltage, Region – Global Forecast to 2025", is estimated to grow from USD 44.2 billion in 2020 to reach USD 94.4 billion by 2025 at a CAGR of 16.4%. The lithium-ion battery industry is likely to exhibit lucrative growth potential during the forecast period. Factors such as increasing demand for plug-in vehicles, growing need for automation & battery-operated material-handling equipment in industries, increasing 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.



Lithium-Ion Battery Market and Top Applications


  • Consumer Electronics – Continuous technological developments in consumer electronics have boosted the growth of lithium-ion battery market. Li-ion batteries are in high demand for the consumer electronics application because they offer higher density, better durability, offers less recharge time, and more energy storage than other batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are a state-of-the-art power source for all modern consumer electronic devices. Being environment-friendly, lithium-ion batteries are widely accepted by electronics manufacturers.
  • Automotive − The automotive industry is expected to be one of the major segments for lithium-ion batteries. Battery-driven vehicles such as electric vehicles, e-bikes, and automated guided vehicles, are major consumers of lithium-ion batteries. The market for these vehicles is expected to grow due to increasing adoption and awareness of EVs, partly driven by the adoption of various environmental norms and emission regulations. This has resulted in an increase in the demand for Li-ion and Ni-Mh batteries.
  • Industrial – Lithium-ion batteries are used in various industrial applications. These batteries provide advantages in terms of carbon emissions and safety in underground environments. Batteries with high energy density and longer backup are required to improve the efficiency and performance of industrial equipment. Rapid infrastructural growth and support from governments and industry associations for the adoption of lithium-ion batteries are boosting the demand for construction and mining equipment, which is further leading to the growth of lithium-ion batteries in the industrial sector.
  • Power − The power industry is working on generating renewable energy and storing it for multiple uses. Attributes such as low cost, less space required for installation, and low self-discharge rate are some of the driving factors for the adoption of lithium-ion batteries in smart grid and renewable energy storage systems. The lithium-ion battery technology is being used in power plants to achieve maximum efficiency. These batteries are more resistive to extreme temperature situations, making them suitable for use in remote locations and for thermal management options.

APAC to dominate the lithium-ion battery industry during the forecast period

APAC dominated the global lithium-ion battery market in 2019. The market mainly comprises China and India, which have considerable potential for many application areas for lithium-ion batteries. China being a global automotive manufacturing hub, holds immense potential for the growth of the lithium-ion battery industry. An 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 market across multiple applications in China. Also, the presence of several 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.

Europe accounted for the second-largest share of the global market in 2019. Presence and active association in Europe, such as the Association of European Automotive Industrial Battery Manufacturers and PRBA is supporting the use of lithium-ion battery in different applications in safe mode by their set standards and certification. Extensive investments in the R&D of battery production and well-established automotive sector in Germany, high adoption of electric vehicles in developed countries, and investments by governments for increasing the battery production are the key factors driving the lithium-ion battery market in this region.

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 Corporation (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 the 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 smartwatches. LG Chem built 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 the production base in 2018, it could supply lithium-ion batteries for 100,000 electric vehicles every year, resulting in the production capacity for 280,000 electric vehicles by leveraging the company's production system (Korea, US, China, and Poland).
