Cylindrical LiFePO4 Battery Market By Voltage (Below 3.2V, 3.2V, Above 3.2V) , By Capacity (Less than 1500mAh, 1500mAh to 3000mAh, More than 3000mAh) By Application (Electric Vehicles, Energy Storage, Portable Electronics, Industrial Applications, Others) : Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024-2030
The cylindrical LiFePO4 battery market was valued at $3.0 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $4.6 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2024 to 2030.
Cylindrical lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery is a rechargeable battery that uses lithium iron phosphate as its cathode material, imparting superior longevity and improved discharge & charge efficiency. Cylindrical batteries help to achieve heat dissipation more easily and control temperature as compared to conventional batteries. These batteries are known to be non-contaminating and non-toxic, making them a sustainable solution for a wide range of applications.
The growth of the cylindrical LiFePO4 battery market is majorly driven by increase in penetration of electric vehicles. This is attributed to high safety and long service life of LiFePO4 batteries, which make them suitable for use in electric vehicles. 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. Moreover, increase in penetration of portable electronics such as such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, and wearables acts as the key driving force of the global market. LiFePO4 batteries are well-suited for portable consumer electronics due to their ability to withstand frequent charging and discharging cycles without significant degradation. These applications require high-performance batteries, which, in turn, propel the growth of the LiFePO4 battery market, as lithium iron phosphate plays a crucial role in improving battery efficiency and enhancing the longevity of electronic devices. Furthermore, increase in adoption of renewable energy storage systems is notably propelling the demand for LiFePO4 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 LiFePO4 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, implementation of supportive government initiatives for proper battery disposal is expected to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global market during the forecast period.
