Growth Drivers
Burgeoning Population Across the World – The expansion of the population is generating the need for fuel-efficient vehicles. Thus, the increasing demand for electric vehicle batteries is expected to rise with the production rate of electric vehicles. The World Bank calculated the global population to be 7.84 billion in 2021, an increase from 7.09 billion in 2021. This number is anticipated to rise to 9.8 billion in 2050 and 11.2 billion in 2100, as per the United Nations, Department of Economic and Social Affairs.
Rapid Growth of the Automotive Industry - Numerous factors have contributed to the rise of the automobile sector. The rising demand for cars, particularly in emerging nations, is one of the major factors influencing growth. The demand for automobiles, trucks, and other vehicles is anticipated to increase as economies develop and more people can purchase them. Recent statistics reveal that Indian passenger car sales were up by 26.5 percent from September 2019 to September 2020.
Increased Carbon Dioxide Emission – A report published recently stated that a passenger vehicle emits about 5 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. Also, as per the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, globally road transport is responsible for about 16% of man-made carbon dioxide emissions.
Increasing Preference for Electric Cars – More and more people are opting for EVs as they become the wiser and more sustainable option. The latest report by International Energy Agency stated the number of electric cars on the road was 16.5 million in 2021 globally.
Challenges
The global electric vehicle battery market is segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by vehicle type into commercial, and passenger vehicles. Out of these, the passenger vehicles segment is attributed to garner the highest market share by 2033, owing to the high demand for personal vehicles by the burgeoning population. The increasing adoption of electric vehicle in both developed and emerging nations, along with the passenger car, currently dominates the market and is predicted to keep doing so over the projection period. Additionally, this category is anticipated to rule the EV battery market as more governments around the world embrace emission rules. In addition, increased consumer awareness of the benefits of EVs, evolving lifestyles, increasing urbanization, and rising disposable income are anticipated to boost the segment’s growth in the market. The International Energy Agency stated that passenger electric cars are surging in popularity and that it is estimated that 13% of new cars sold in 2022 were electric around the globe.
The global electric vehicle battery market is also segmented and analyzed for demand and supply by end-user into electric vehicle OEMs, battery swapping stations, and others. Out of these segments, the electric vehicle OEM segment is projected to garner the highest market share over the forecast period. This can be ascribed to the fact that electric vehicle OEMs are the biggest end-users of electric vehicle batteries by a large margin. The original equipment manufacturing companies use these batteries as replacements for faulty or expired batteries in their battery electric vehicles (BEVs). For instance, over 400,000 BEVs were sold in the US in 2021.

The Asia Pacific electric vehicle battery market, amongst the market in all the other regions, is projected to hold the largest market share by the end of 2033. owing to the large production of electric vehicles in the region. China is the top producer of electric vehicles as per the International Energy Agency. The electric car registration rose from the year 2019 with almost 1000 thousand units to the year 2020 with around 1300 thousand units in China. Further, the large population in the region is expected to increase the demand for electric vehicles during the assessment period, which in turn is projected to increase the adoption rate of electric vehicle batteries. The population in East Asia and the Pacific, as per World Bank was 2.37 billion in 2021. Additionally, technological advancements, growth in Gross Domestic Level (GDP) along with the rise in disposable income are other factors that are anticipated to fuel the global electric vehicle battery market size.
Furthermore, opportunities for the stakeholders in this market are anticipated as top international investors make increasing investments in the Indian EV market. India's EV start-ups invested $406 million in 2019, up from $20 million in 2017. Of that investment, Ola Electric raised about $300 million, helping the business carve out a niche for itself in the Indian EV market. Additionally, the business has formed alliances with a wide range of OEMs and battery producers in order to collaborate with the automotive sector and develop seamless solutions for EV operations. These advances are anticipated to encourage the expansion of EVs globally in the upcoming years, which will increase market demand for electric batteries.
Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Renault Group, and Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has entered into a partnership to launch the new Kei or mini electric vehicle (EV).
Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited in co-operation with Solaris Bus & Coach sp. z o.o. is all set to enhance the battery supply and electrification of city transportation in Europe.
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
