Energy storage and lithium battery industry

The global market for Lithium-ion batteries is expanding rapidly. We take a closer look at new value chain solutions that can help meet the growing demand. . Global demand for Li-ion batteries is expected to soar over the next decade, with the number of GWh required increasing from. . The global battery value chain, like others within industrial manufacturing, faces significant environmental, social, and governance (ESG). . The 2030 outlook for the battery value chain depends on three interdependent elements (Exhibit 12): 1. Supply-chain resilience. A resilient battery value chain is one that is regionalized and diversified. We envision that each region will cover over 90 percent of. . Some recent advances in battery technologies include increased cell energy density, new active material chemistries such as solid-state batteries, and cell and packaging. [pdf]
