Dublin, Feb. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "EV Battery Recycling Market by Type (Li-ion, Ni-MH, SLA), Source (Commercial, Passenger, E-bikes), Process (Direct, Pyro, Hydro), Model (Contractual Services, Direct-to-Market), Material (Graphite, Lithium), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global EV battery recycling market is expected to reach $6.5 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 37.1% during the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The growth of this market is driven by the increasing demand for electric vehicles, stringent regulatory frameworks for battery recycling, and increasing concerns over the depletion of raw material resources. However, safety issues related to the storage and transportation of used batteries restrain the growth of this market.
Increasing government incentives for battery recycling and innovations in battery recycling technologies are expected to generate market growth opportunities. However, the high costs of recycling EV batteries are a major challenge for the players operating in this market. Furthermore, increasing investments in battery recycling infrastructure in emerging economies is a key trend in the EV battery recycling market.
Based on battery type, the global EV battery recycling market is broadly segmented into Lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion), sealed lead acid batteries (SLA), nickel-metal hydride batteries (Ni-MH), ultracapacitors, and other batteries.
In 2023, the lithium-ion batteries segment is expected to account for the largest share of 75.0% of the global EV battery recycling market. Factors such as the increasing adoption of electric vehicles, the rising need to recover valuable materials from Li-ion batteries to reduce the need for the mining and processing of new raw materials, and the growing need for high energy density and low self-discharge rate batteries for EVs contribute to the significant market share of this segment.
Based on battery source, the global EV battery recycling market is broadly segmented into commercial vehicles, passenger cars, e-scooters & motorcycles, and E-bikes.
In 2023, the E-bikes segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global EV battery recycling market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the rising adoption of e-bikes worldwide.
Based on recycling process, the global EV battery recycling market is broadly segmented into direct physical recycling process, pyrometallurgical process, hydrometallurgical process, and other recycling processes.
In 2023, the pyrometallurgical process segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global EV battery recycling market.
The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing need to remove organic material from Li-ion batteries and extract metals from ores with low metal content and the increasing demand for scalable, flexible, low-cost, and low environmental impact recycling processes.
Based on business model, the global EV battery recycling market is broadly segmented into contractual recycling services and direct-to-market.
In 2023, the contractual recycling services segment is expected to account for the larger share of the global EV battery recycling market. The large market share of this segment is mainly attributed to the increasing government incentives for battery recycling, stringent laws for the recycling of EV batteries, the increasing revenue streams for companies involved in the EV battery recycling market, and the growing need to reduce the cost of raw materials for new EV batteries.
Based on material, the global EV battery recycling market is broadly segmented into graphite, nickel, cobalt, copper, manganese, lithium, aluminum, iron, plastics, and other materials.
In 2023, the graphite segment is expected to account for the largest share of the global EV battery recycling market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the high recycling rate of sealed lead acid batteries (SLA) and the increasing need to recover valuable materials from used EV batteries to reduce the need for the mining of new resources.
Based on geography, the global EV battery recycling market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa.
In 2023, Asia-Pacific is expected to account for the largest share of the global EV battery recycling market, followed by Europe and North America. Asia-Pacific's significant market share is mainly attributed to the growing implementation of policies and initiatives to reduce the amount of EV battery waste and toxic substances in the environment, the rising concerns regarding the depletion of precious and rare earth metals, the growing demand for lithium-ion batteries, the increasing amount of battery waste generated, and the high adoption of electric mobility in the region.
