Global Lithium-ion Battery market is expected to thrive during the forecast period 2024-2028. The market for lithium-ion batteries has experienced phenomenal growth as a result of the high demand from consumer electronics and automobile industries. As more products come in the market that require a portable power source, lithium-ion batteries have emerged as an excellent alternative.

A lithium-ion battery, often known as a Li-ion battery, is a type of rechargeable battery that stores energy by reversible reduction of lithium ions. Graphite, a kind of carbon, is generally used as negative electrode of normal lithium-ion cell. Rechargeable Li-ion batteries, often known as LIBs, are found in hybrid and electric vehicles, as well as in computers and cellphones. Since Li-ion batteries are lightweight, have a high energy density to extend battery life, and can be recharged, their use is expanding across a variety of applications.

Growing Applications in the Energy Sector

The grid-level energy storage system is crucial to maintaining a balance between power generation and consumption during the electrical energy transformation process. Because of their quick response, modular design, and adaptable installation, batteries have a lot of potential for usage in grid-level energy storage systems. Lithium-ion batteries have exceptional benefits for energy storage applications, including high energy density, high energy efficiency, and long cycle life, due to which lithium-ion batteries, among other battery technologies, are garnering a lot of attention as supporting devices in the grid. Currently, lithium-ion batteries are used in 77% of electrical power storage systems in USA to stabilise the grid. Lithium-ion battery use is expanding in the energy industry, which opens up new market expansion prospects.

Increasing R&D for Advancements In Technologies and Battery Life

Several firms conduct R&D to create lithium-ion batteries that are dependable and secure. In order to develop various battery chemistries, battery makers have significantly increased their R&D efforts as the worldtransitions to sustainable energy. For example, leading companies like Amprius Inc. in the US and Nexeon Corporation in the UK are working to build silicon anode batteries with improved features. In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that these cutting-edge silicon anode batteries are going to be adopted globally for energy storage applications. Additionally, to power electric vehicles, Tesla (US) and Panasonic Corporation (Japan) are conducting research and development on silicon anode and lithium-air batteries. Due to above factors, the market for Lithium-ion Battery is expected to growth drastically in near future.

Declining Prices of Li-ion Batteries Have Catalyzed Adoption in Various Sector

The cost of these batteries was the main issue preventing their widespread use after 1990. Li-ion batteries (LIB) are made up of a variety of parts, but the cell which makes up the majority of any LIB's cost is its primary constituent. However, new innovations by LIB manufacturing firms have contributed to falling prices for these batteries, which will continue to fall in the future. The use of cutting-edge technology to improve battery capacity and the falling costs of components are major driver in the rise of lithium-ion batteries market, globally.

Growing Demand for High Power and High Capacity Lithium-Ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles

The consumer electronics industry was the main consumer of batteries in the early years of lithium-ion battery industry. However, the main source of electricity for electric vehicles is lithium-ion batteries. The use of lithium-ion batteries has unavoidably increased due to the increasing use of EVs and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and this trend is predicted to continue in the future. Due to the rise in EV sales in recent years, EV makers have emerged as the largest buyers of lithium-ion batteries. Compared to conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, EVs have a lower environmental impact as they produce no CO2, NOX, or other greenhouse gases. Due to this benefit, many nations are promoting the use of EVs through the introduction of subsidies and government initiatives.​ A number of nations have made plans to prohibit the sale of ICE automobiles in the future. Sales of ICE vehicles will be prohibited in Norway by 2025, France by 2040, and the UK by 2050. India, likewise, has plans to phase out ICE engines by 2030, and China is presently conducting the necessary research for a similar strategy.The number of electric vehicles on the market in the world increased from 1.24 million in 2015 to 16.49 million, by the end of 2021.

The market for these eco-friendly and pollution-free automobiles has grown as a result of consumers' growing adoption of EVs. Additionally, a number of countries are developing laws to promote the usage of electric vehicles. Furthermore, lithium batteries, which have a life expectancy of 10 years, power RVs and electric vehicles more successfully than lead-corrosive batteries since they are more modest and lighter. As a result, over the projection period, there will be an increase in demand for lithium-ion batteries with high power and high capacity.

Increasing Penetration into Large Applications will Fuel the Liyhium-ion Battery Market in the Forecast Period

Applications for lithium-ion batteries are numerous, ranging from high-end yachts to life-saving medical devices. Electric mobility, energy storage systems, power backups/ups, mobile, laptops, and other frequently used consumer electronics are some of the most popular uses for lithium-ion batteries. Power from lithium batteries is dependable, consistent, and long-lasting. Additionally, lithium batteries are utilised with solar panels because they charge quickly, increasing the potential storage of solar energy.

In addition, they are superior to lead-acid batteries in terms of weight, longevity, quick charging, low self-discharge rate, and prolonged operating duration, making them the best option for mobility equipment like electric wheelchairs and stairlifts. In addition, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are utilised in a wide range of goods, including electric vehicles, toys, wireless headphones, small and large appliances, electronics, and portable power tools. As a result, the growing use of lithium-ion batteries in big applications will boost the market for batteries in the years to come.
