“This is anticipated to support the prices of key battery materials—such as [lithium iron phosphate] LFP, li-ion battery copper foil, and electrolytes—thereby stabilizing average battery cell prices in the first quarter of 2025,” TrendForce says.
The price of LFP cells is over 20% lower than nickel cobalt manganese (NCM) cells. The average price of an LFP cell was just under $60/kWh in 2024. Currently, Greater China has a near monopoly in LFP cell manufacturing, considering the negligible LFP production capacity in Europe and North America.
The average price of an LFP cell was just under $60/kWh in 2024. Currently, Greater China has a near monopoly in LFP cell manufacturing, considering the negligible LFP production capacity in Europe and North America. However, LFP production capacity is poised to expand, especially in Europe, through this decade.
The addition of LFP capacities outside of Greater China will raise the global average price of LFP cells in the midterm, but as the manufacturing cost is brought under control through process improvements, the global LFP average cell price will gradually fall below the current level.
After tumbling to record low in 2024 on the back of lower metal costs and increased scale, lithium-ion battery prices are expected to enter a period of stabilization. The rapid decrease in lithium ion battery prices seen in previous years is likely to be slowed down in 2025 due to an uptick in battery material costs.
The report states that LFP batteries reached 80% of the batteries sold in China during November and December. “The higher energy density of NMC batteries remains an advantage for applications requiring longer ranges or operation in cold climates,” the report notes.
