China is responsible for 80% of the refining of essential raw materials for the production of lithium-ion batteries

The Chinese demand for lithium-ion batteries today is 72GWh

The size of China's lithium-ion battery market is expected to reach US$23 billion by 2024

Why does China control this industry?

The Chinese leadership is explained not only by massive investments in this industry but also by China’s wide access to essential raw materials for the production of batteries. This is because many Chinese companies control significant parts of projects and mines in strategic countries such as Chile, Argentina, and Congo. In addition, the country produces 60% of the world’s graphite, and 80% of cobalt refining is also done there.

Among the 90 battery manufacturers (2018) operating in the country, Ganfeng Lithium, the largest producer of lithium compounds in China, and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited (CATL), the largest manufacturer of EV batteries in the world, stands out with more than 24% of the market.
