Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Market by Battery Chemistry (Lithium-Iron Phosphate, Lithium-Manganese Oxide, Lithium-Nickel Cobalt Aluminum Oxide), Recycling Process (Direct (Physical) Process, Hydrometallurgy (Leaching) Process, Pyrometallurgy (Smelting) Process), Battery Component - Global Forecast 2024-2030


The Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Market size was estimated at USD 9.42 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 11.04 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 18.55% to reach USD 31.02 billion by 2030.

Global Lithium-ion Battery Recycling Market Lithium-ion battery recycling includes collecting lithium-ion batteries through various sources, including automotive, industrial, consumer & electronics appliances, and recovering metals or elements through recycling processes. Increasing concerns owing to battery waste disposal and stringent government policies, with the increase in usage of lithium-ion batteries due to the decrease in prices of lithium-ion batteries and the growing adoption of electric vehicles, are driving the lithium-ion battery recycling market. However, the high cost and low yield related to battery recycling are impeding the growth of the battery recycling market. The introduction of advanced lithium-ion-battery recycling techniques is expected to benefit the market's growth.Regional InsightsThe presence of many recycling companies, availability of different battery manufacturers, large battery installed base, and favorable battery energy storage policies are some of the factors propelling the growth of the lithium-ion battery recycling market in the Americas. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), offered guidelines for the adoption of electric vehicles and reaching the goal of zero-emission vehicles by 2025. According to a report in May 2022, California is the largest market for EVs in the United States, and it is estimating 45,000 EV batteries will be retired from the state by 2027. The rising adoption of electric vehicles in Asia-Pacific is expected to expand the market's potential. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2021, electric car sales nearly tripled to 3.3 million, accounting for around half of the global total electric car sales. According to a recent study, Indonesia aims for electric vehicles to account for 20% of its production by 2025, while Singapore targets to phase out internal combustion engines by 2040. Thailand has also aimed to generate 1.2 million electric vehicles by 2036.
