What’s Next for EV Batteries? Innovations Powering the Future

People increasingly choose electric vehicles over gasoline-powered cars as a greener and more sustainable option as worries about climate change and air pollution grow. EV batteries are in high demand as a result of the current boom in EV sales. Additionally, researchers are working to improve battery technology, with notable advancements in range, lifespan, and charging times. The future of EV batteries market is further stimulated by these developments, which are making EVs more desirable and practicable for customers.

“Prismatic form to hold largest market share during the forecast period.”

Prismatic cells are a more compact variation of cylindrical cells, characterized by folding the anode, cathode, and separator internal layers into a flattened spiral or cubic shape. As a result, its structure is more compact. A polymer or metal housing holds the battery's contents in place. Prismatic cells enable better space utilization even if they have a lower energy density (20–50% less than cylindrical cells). Despite being jelly-rolled, prismatic cells can be more expensive to produce than cylindrical cells because of their larger surface areas and more difficult internal layer rolling procedure. CATL, BYD, and Samsung SDI are major manufacturers of prismatic cells. For instance, in October 2023, Samsung SDI announced the company had clinched a supply deal for electric vehicle batteries with Hyundai Motor Company for the first time. Samsung SDI will supply prismatic batteries for Hyundai Motor’s EVs, targeting the European market for seven years from 2026 through 2032. Such developments will lead the future of EV batteries market  during the forecast period.

The global future of EV batteries market is projected to grow from 16 million units in 2024 to 62 million units by 2035, at a CAGR of 12.7%.

“By Battery Packaging form Cell to Pack hold the largest market share.”

Major EV and battery manufacturers have shown interest in developing cell to pack battery packs. Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited. (CATL) (China), C4V (US), LG Energy Solution. (South Korea), Sunwoda Electronic Co., Ltd. (China), Tesla (US), BYD Company Ltd. (China), Ford Motor Company (US), and others have already started launching products that include cell to pack batteries. The growth of this segment is mainly driven by the increasing demand for high-voltage batteries to achieve a longer driving range. With new electric vehicles to be launched in the market, battery manufacturers and global EV OEMs continuously work on extensive research and developments and invest in advancing technology. CTP batteries are one of the results of such advancements, eliminating the use of modules and directly integrating cells into battery packs. This allows the use of larger and more cells within battery packs with reduced interconnections and a simplified assembly process resulting in an increased volumetric density of batteries and reduced cost. CTP technology is yet to be commercially launched in most EV-dominating countries. It is expected to gain traction by 2024-2025 in the US, South Korea, Japan, and European countries.

“Europe to be the fastest growing market in future of EV battery during the forecast period.”

European OMEs are making significant investments in domestic battery manufacturing. The intention is to become self-sufficient and less dependent on the massive Asian battery companies. Across the continent, several gigafactories are being planned and built, strengthening the European economy and generating thousands of employment. Recognizing the market's enormous potential, major automakers, IT firms, and private investors are investing billions of euros in European EV batteries. This capital inflow is speeding up manufacturing and innovation, which is boosting the market's expansion even more. Furthermore, Europe is seeing a steady rise in the demand for electric vehicles. Customers are searching for environmentally friendly transportation options as their concern for the environment grows. In response, automakers expanded their electric vehicles' range, raising the need for EV batteries.

Key Players

The major players in Future of EV Batteries market include CATL (China), BYD Company Ltd. (China), LG Energy Solution Ltd. (South Korea), Panasonic Holdings Corporation (Japan), and SK Innovation Co., Ltd. (South Korea). These companies adopted various strategies, such as new product developments and deals, to gain traction in the market.
