NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --  The electrification of vehicles is still in its infancy stage, and it is projected to attract a significant volume of lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are heavily adopted due to their compact size, rechargeability, recyclability and high-density energy output. As a result, such batteries are largely used in electric vehicles (EVs). Government subsidies for EVs, along with investments in this space, are likely to act as an additional booster to the growth of the market. Geographically, the Asia Pacific region dominated the market as it held the largest volume share of 56.3% in 2020, owing to the rapidly developing automotive, glass, and consumer goods industries in countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and India. According to Grand View Research, the global lithium market size was valued at USD 6.83 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0% from 2022 to 2030.

Wednesday, November 2, 2022

NEW YORK, Nov. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lithium-ion batteries are being rapidly adopted due to their compact size, rechargeability, recyclability and high-density energy output. They are, among other things, a source of power for electric vehicles (EVs). Additionally, the growing awareness about the amount of carbon emissions released into the environment from automobiles has helped spur the adoption of electric vehicles around the globe. This, in turn, has put the onus on manufacturers to offer electric vehicles running on lithium-ion batteries, instead of adopting other battery alternatives due to their lightweight nature, high energy density, and low cost. Now, it is expected that the global lithium-ion battery market will grow at a CAGR of around 26.04% to reach a value of around USD 160.21 Billion by 2026, having stood at USD 42.30 Billion in 2020, according to Research and Markets.
