NEW YORK, Feb. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lithium-ion batteries are heavily adopted due to their compact size, rechargeability, recyclability and high-density energy output. 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. However, the U.S. has major significance in battery production after China, which makes it one of the key lithium-consuming countries in the world. Last year, the bureau of land management approved the Thacker Pass Mine proposed by Lithium Nevada Corporation. The mine is believed to serve as the largest source of lithium supply in the U.S. and is expected to be able to produce about 60 kilotons of battery-grade lithium carbonate by 2026.
