The global lithium-ion battery recycling solution market size was USD 3594.2 million in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 62429.36 million in 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 37.3% during the forecast period.

Lithium-ion battery recycling is the collection of lithium-ion batteries from many sources, including automobiles, industrial equipment, consumer items, and electronic gadgets, along with the recovery of metals through recycling processes. Most recovered metals are just utilized to create batteries. As a result, the limited supply of lithium is a major driver of the growth of the lithium-ion battery recycling industry.

COVID-19 Impact: Growth to Be Affected by COVID-19 Pandemic and Stoppage of Cross-Border Trade

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with lithium-ion battery recycling solution market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden decline in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a number of operations across many industries to be postponed. To stop transmission, the government is enacting new laws like lockout and social seclusion measures. Stopping cross-border trade would have a negative effect on the supply chain network. To better assist our clients in comprehending the current situation, we are providing in-depth insights on the lithium-ion battery recycling sector.

Latest Trends

Driving Factors

"Demand for Clean Energy Sources Will Rise, Boosting Growth"

Nowadays, people are quickly moving toward clean energy sources because they provide effective input for a variety of applications. The installation of numerous batteries for numerous electric vehicles and energy storage has increased significantly throughout the world. This is anticipated to support the replacement of old batteries that produce waste due to low output efficiency. For instance, Total declared in March 2020 that it would build a battery-based energy storage project in France. In the next years, such activities are projected to hasten the expansion of the lithium-ion battery recycling market.

"Electric Vehicle Demand Is Also Stoking The Market, Which Is Growing Quickly"

Due to the rising demand for lithium-ion batteries in the automobile industry, the market for recycling options for these batteries has grown dramatically. Due to growing environmental concerns, electric car usage is rapidly increasing, particularly in wealthy countries and some emerging countries. According to the Sustainable Development Scenario of the International Energy Agency (IEA), there will be 245 million electric vehicles worldwide by 2030 (excluding two- and three-wheelers), which is anticipated to encourage the recycling of lithium-ion batteries to meet the demand for these batteries in electric vehicles in the future.

Restraining Factors

"Safety Concerns Pertaining To the Transportation and Storage Of Used Batteries"

Hazardous compounds found in used batteries include acids and heavy metals like mercury and lead. The remaining charge in spent batteries creates the risk of unintentional discharge, which could cause harm to people and property. Lead acid batteries can be confused with large lithium-based batteries, as those used in automobile applications. if regional battery producers incorrectly identify them. State or federal governments restrict the transportation and storage of expended batteries as a result of these problems.
