The cylindrical Li-ion battery market was valued at $7.4 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $18.0 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 9.4% from 2024 to 2033.
Cylindrical li-ion battery is a high energy density rechargeable battery that comprises rolled-up electrodes and separators stored in a cylindrical shape can. The robust design of these batteries makes them suitable for use in various applications, including consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and power tools. Cylindrical Li-ion batteries offer advantages such as superior thermal management, high discharge rates, and consistent performance, making them a preferred choice for applications requiring reliable and efficient energy storage.
The growth of the global cylindrical Li-ion battery market is majorly driven by increase in penetration of portable electronics such as such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, and wearables. This is attributed to the fact that cylindrical Li-ion batteries offer high energy density, providing more power in a compact form. Moreover, surge in adoption of electric vehicles significantly contributes toward the growth of the global market. According to the International Energy Agency, a Paris-based autonomous intergovernmental organization, over 3 million electric vehicles were sold in the first quarter of 2024, around 25% higher as compared to 2023. This number is estimated to reach 17 million by the end of 2024, exhibiting a 20% year-on-year increase. These applications require high-performance batteries, which, in turn, propel the demand for cylindrical Li-ion batteries, as they play a crucial role in improving battery efficiency and enhancing the longevity of electronic devices. Furthermore, fast charging increases the rate of heat generation, requiring efficient cooling systems. This boosts the demand for cylindrical batteries as they exhibit superior heat dissipation properties, enhancing safety and performance by minimizing the risk of overheating and thermal runaway. Moreover, increase in adoption of renewable energy storage systems is notably propelling the demand for cylindrical Li-ion batteries. The International Renewable Energy Agency states that the installed capacity of energy storage in the world will increase by 42% to 68% by 2030, which is expected to contribute to the growing adoption and popularity of cylindrical Li-ion batteries. Although these batteries exhibit long service life and require zero maintenance, they are incur high initial cost, which acts as a key deterrent factor of the market. The market growth is further hampered by improper disposal practices of batteries that can lead to several environmental and health issues. On the contrary, continuous improvements in battery technology, including better materials and manufacturing techniques, enhance the performance, lifespan, and safety of cylindrical Li-ion batteries, which are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the expansion of the global market during the forecast period.
