Global demand for Li-ion batteries is expected to soar over the next decade, with the number of GWh required increasing from about 700 GWh in 2022 to around 4.7 TWh by 2030 (Exhibit 1). Batteries for mobility applications, such as electric vehicles (EVs), will account for the vast bulk of demand in 2030—about 4,300 GWh; an.

challenges to position the United States for global leadership in the energy storage technologies of the future. 1 . Cost and technology trends for lithium-based EV batteries 19 Figure 19.
To facilitate the rapid deployment of new solar PV and wind power that is necessary to triple renewables, global energy storage capacity must increase sixfold to 1 500 GW by 2030. Batteries account for 90% of the increase in
Global investment in battery energy storage exceeded USD 20 billion in 2022, predominantly in grid-scale deployment, which represented more than 65% of total spending in 2022. Battery recycling has the potential to be a significant
The increase in battery demand drives the demand for critical materials. In 2022, lithium demand exceeded supply (as in 2021) despite the 180% increase in production since 2017. In 2022, about 60% of lithium, 30% of cobalt and 10%
Cars remain the primary driver of EV battery demand, accounting for about 75% in the APS in 2035, albeit down from 90% in 2023, as battery demand from other EVs grows very quickly. In the STEPS, battery demand for EVs other than
The growth in EV sales is pushing up demand for batteries, continuing the upward trend of recent years. Demand for EV batteries reached more than 750 GWh in 2023, up 40% relative to
Energy is essential in our daily lives to increase human development, which leads to economic growth and productivity. In recent national development plans and policies, numerous nations
In the past few decades, electricity production depended on fossil fuels due to their reliability and efficiency [1].Fossil fuels have many effects on the environment and directly
MITEI''s three-year Future of Energy Storage study explored the role that energy storage can play in fighting climate change and in the global adoption of clean energy grids. Replacing fossil fuel-based power generation with power
Batteries account for 90% of the increase in storage in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, rising 14-fold to 1 200 GW by 2030. This includes both utility-scale and behind-the-meter battery storage. Other storage technologies include pumped hydro, compressed air, flywheels and thermal storage.
Just as analysts tend to underestimate the amount of energy generated from renewable sources, battery demand forecasts typically underestimate the market size and are regularly corrected upwards.
By 2030, the United States and its partners will establish a secure battery materials and technology supply chain that supports long-term U.S. economic competitiveness and equitable job creation, enables decarbonization, advances social justice, and meets national security requirements.
New research reveals that battery manufacturing will be more energy-efficient in future because technological advances and economies of scale will counteract the projected rise in future energy demand.
As EV sales continue to increase in today’s major markets in China, Europe and the United States, as well as expanding across more countries, demand for EV batteries is also set to grow quickly. In the STEPS, EV battery demand grows four-and-a-half times by 2030, and almost seven times by 2035 compared to 2023.
As a result, the demand for battery cells is increasing markedly. The World Economic Forum predicted that the global battery demand will be 2,600 GWh in 2030 (ref. 7).
