Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market Size More Than Triples to Touch Whopping USD 214 Billion by 2030
Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market is flourishing because of the growing demand for EVs and an increasing focus on sustainability and reducing carbon footprint.
Report Ocean, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market size at USD 67.12 billion in 2023. During the forecast period between 2024 and 2030, Report Ocean expects the Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market size to expand at a CAGR of 14.87% reaching a value of USD 213.85 billion by 2030. Growing demand and production of electric cars, together with supportive government policies like EV battery subsidies to encourage sustainability, are key growth drivers for the global electric vehicle battery market.
By volume, Report Ocean estimated the Electric Vehicle Battery Market size at 309 kilotons in 2023. During the forecast period between 2024 and 2030, Report Ocean expects the Electric Vehicle Battery Market size to expand at a CAGR of 16.03% reaching the volume of 412 kilotons by 2030. Rapid adoption of technological advancements in battery and growing consumer awareness about environmental issues are also projected to propel the Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market during the period in analysis.
Opportunity: Rising investments in EV battery RD and production
The rising demand for EVs owing to rising consumer consciousness toward the environment and favorable government initiatives to boost electrification in the automotive sector are influencing major manufacturers to boost their EV research and development (R&D) and production capacities. As a result, various industry players are further investing in scaling up their EV battery output, which is projected to drive the Global Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Market over the forecast period. For instance, JSW, a multinational conglomerate company based in India, announced an investment of INR 40,000 crore to establish an integrated EV manufacturing project in Odisha, India.
Impact of Escalating Geopolitical Tensions on Global Electric Vehicle Battery Market
The escalating geopolitical tensions negatively impacted the growth of the Global Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Market. For instance, Russia's invasion of Ukraine completely disrupted the operations of the EV battery manufacturers. This is because Russia is a major exporter of metals, such as nickel, cobalt, and aluminum, which are crucial in EV battery production. However, sanctions on Russia hindered these imports, which caused a shortage of these metals, consequently leading to a shortage of EV batteries among electric vehicle makers. As per Yale Environment 360, Volkswagen, the second largest producer of electric cars worldwide, declared in June 2022 that it had not been able to fulfill its production target of plug-in vehicles.
