It already has an established market presence due to early adoption in EVs. In addition, it is cost efficient in manufacturing than LFP batteries but due to high demand LFP is also making its way to market due to enhanced safety, longer cycle life, and better thermal stability.

By end user application:The US Lithium-ion market is segmented by application into portable electronic and Electric vehicles and others. The Electric vehicles dominates the market in 2022 due to growing demand and large production.The other key factors, which are responsible for the domination of EV sector Lithium ion market in US, are advancements in technology, support from governments and its regulations and constant development in the infrastructure.

By Geography:Regional Split by East, west , north and south of America segments the US Lithium-ion market.

The West of America which includes with some parts of south of America dominates the market in 2022. West market hold ~27% of the US Lithium ion battery packs.

The west side of America, which includes particularly California, has been a prominent player of clean green policies electric vehicle adoption, and renewable energy integration. It has encouraging initiatives and investments have contributed to the growth of the lithium-ion market.

East side has also notable investments in battery manufacturing facilities, research centers, and energy storage projects. These efforts have aimed to support electric vehicle adoption, renewable energy goals, and grid-scale energy storage.

Competitive Landscape:

There are about 15-20 major Lithium-ion companies in US with majority of them offering EV and portable electronic services in the country. US Lithium –ion market is moderately fragmented with top 2-3 players contribute more than 50% of the market. Major players are Panasonic Corporation, Duracell Inc., Samsung SDI Co. Ltd, LG Chem Ltd and Tesla Inc. Major Companies in lithium-ion market are Tesla and Panasonic Inc., which are majorly concentrated in United States.

Recent Developments:

Government’s policies on environment friendly transportation is also a trending factor in rise of lithium battery products. The US Department of Energy announced in June that it was allocating more than $192 million in new funding for recycling lithium ion batteries from consumer products.

In February 2023, Ascend Elements announced a basic agreement with Honda Motor Co. Ltd to collaborate on stable procurement of recycled lithium-ion battery materials. Ascend is a United States-based battery recycling and engineered materials company. Yoshino Technology announced the development of solid-state lithium-ion batteries with outputs ranging from 330 W to 4,000 W designed for home backup, off-grid applications, and powering small industrial machinery.

Tesla is currently working with Japanese company Panasonic, its longtime partner, as well as South Korea's LG Energy Solutions for making its batteries. Tesla wants to continue with the same in future for maximum revenue.

Also founder Elon Musk announced the reiteration of the company’s plans to sell 20 million vehicles by 2030 and thus bird eyeing the main goal of expanding the Li-ion battery market in USA.

Future Outlook:

US Lithium ion market is expected to show increasing and is expected to grow at a CAGR of ~26% from 2022 to 2028 with Government initiatives for infrastructure development are expected to enhance the connectivity within US.

Tesla is also planning start production at its 50 GWh a year lithium refinery in Corpus Christi, Texas, this year.

US is also to be expected to launch a range of EV models. In addition, falling lithium-ion battery prices and improving technology are expected to bring price-competitive electric vehicles to the market, creating demand for lithium-ion battery technologies in the near future
