Battery Chemical Market Insights: EVs Drive Growth with a Focus on Lithium-ion Batteries
The battery chemicals market has demonstrated steady growth, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 1% over the past five years, reaching a volume of 3,448.6 kilotons by the end of 2021, according to recent analysis by Fact.MR.
In the near term, the dominance of lead-acid batteries in the market is expected to persist due to their extensive use in the automotive sector. However, the past five years have also witnessed a surge in lithium-ion battery consumption, driven by the growing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). As more car owners transition from traditional gasoline-powered vehicles to EVs, the demand for battery chemicals has grown significantly.
By 2021, global demand for light vehicle batteries doubled to 289 GWh, with China contributing over half of this demand, solidifying its position as a leader in EV battery production. Among EVs, Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) accounted for 87% of the demand, a figure expected to rise further.
Production capacity for lithium-ion batteries and their chemicals is operating near full capacity worldwide. To meet rising demand, manufacturers—both large and small—are rapidly expanding capacity, particularly in Europe.
In 2021, CATL emerged as the leading battery cell provider, supplying one-third of all BEV batteries globally. CATL’s adoption of prismatic cells resulted in a 53% market share, up from 38% in 2020, surpassing competitors like Panasonic and LG Chem.
