Lithium-ion Battery Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Increasing Demand for Smartphones – Smartphones' demand for lithium-ion batteries has increased dramatically. According to smartphone suppliers, around 1.39 billion cell phones were sold globally in 2022. The growth can be accredited to the prolonged shelf life and improved efficiency.
- Growing Government Initiatives – The ambitious "zero carbon" goals established by governing bodies throughout the world have increased demand for EVs and, as a result, for lithium-ion batteries, a vital part of electric car strength systems. According to the UN, more than 70 nations have established a net-zero target, which accounts for nearly 76% of global emissions and includes the three greatest polluters: China, the United States, and the European Union.
- Enlargement of Renewable Electricity Sources – Effective electricity storage solutions are required due to the expansion of renewable electricity sources like solar and wind energy. In order to maintain grid stability, lithium-ion batteries are crucial for storing the electricity produced by these sources.
Challenges
- Environmental Challenges - One of the main issues is the concern over the environmental impact of lithium extraction, handling, and disposal as well as the production process itself.
- Risk of Thermal Runaway
- Higher Costs of the Batteries
