The most common types of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide (NMC), Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) Lithium Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2), and Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO).
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.
For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000 per metric ton in 2022 to about $30,000 in 2024. Similarly, the price for lithium carbonate has fallen from a high of approximately $70,000 per metric ton to well below $15,000 in 2024.
Owing to the improved heat stability and longer life cycle of batteries NMC batteries are favored significantly. Nickel provides higher performance of batteries but are costlier when compared to LFP. Thus, companies or researchers are developing new chemistries to target cost-sensitive users. For instance, nickel zinc (NiZn) battery chemistry.
