The nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery market has been observing significant growth due to growing demand for efficient batteries from different industrial applications such as EV, ESS and many more. This is encouraging several innovative initiations in the industry. Solid-state batteries being one of the advances seen in the field.
Market players including CATL, Clarios, Exide Technologies, Tesla, Saft are the top 5 companies in the nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery market. The key 5 players hold nearly 40% of market share. Among these, CATL is one of the major share holding player in the market.
Given the anticipated growth in lithium-ion deployment for electrified transportation, it is also projected that secondary streams from end-of-life batteries could become a significant domestic source for nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co).
The greatest scientific/technical/engineering challenges to bringing domestic nickel and cobalt mining online include inefficient mature technologies and inadequate scale-up strategies for emerging technologies, as well as lifecycle and environmental challenges and potential changes in cathode chemistries.
In the short to medium term, access to nickel and cobalt from reliable partners (such as Canada) and geopolitical engagement with others (such as DRC) will help with supply diversification; in the long term, recycling would likely play a more important role in securing domestic supply but must meet purity specifications.
McKinsey's analysis indicates a geographic concentration in the supply chains of these critical materials, posing significant risks. Indonesia and the DRC are mentioned as major players in nickel and cobalt mining respectively, while major lithium sources include Argentina, Bolivia and Chile.
