Li-Bridge has established a 2030 goal for the US lithium battery industry: to double current value capture, such that the US will increase its domestic stake of the US market to 60%. This would add $17 billion in direct value and 40,000 direct jobs. The 2050 goal is decidedly more ambitious. Li-Bridge believes that nearly 100% of the domestic market can be
Sunlight''s Greek factory is the world''s largest producer of lead-acid batteries for automated guided vehicles, forklifts and energy storage systems and it is now shifting to lithium cells.
ReLiFe Project will eventually pave the path for the successful commercialization of an industrial scale LFP recycling plant, which will cover EU''s raw material requirements for battery cells manufacturing and supply 1.5% of lithium
The list of critical raw materials has 30 positions, and among the newly added is lithium, which is essential for batteries needed to switch to electric mobility, as well as for energy storage. "If we only refer to electric car
Sunlight is also setting up a prototype lithium ion battery cells production plant at its headquarters in Xanthi. Greek prime minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis praised Sunlight as a global leader in the energy sector when he
ReLiFe Project will eventually pave the path for the successful commercialization of an industrial scale LFP recycling plant, which will cover EU''s raw material requirements for battery cells manufacturing and supply 1.5% of lithium demand in Europe.
However, 2024 is projected to be a more challenging year for the industry as overall economic growth slows down and the shift toward low-carbon technologies unfolds more slowly than expected, both of which are putting downward pressure on price levels, especially for battery materials such as nickel and lithium.
Sunlight''s Greek factory is the world''s largest producer of lead-acid batteries for automated guided vehicles, forklifts and energy storage systems and it is now shifting to lithium cells.
September 2, 2021: Systems Sunlight, the Greek battery manufacturing firm, will spend €50 million ($59.2 million) to expand its lead and lithium manufacturing unit in Xanthi, north-eastern Greece, it announced on September 2.
The leapfrog development of LIB industry has resulted in significant demand on mineral resources and thus challenges to its sustainability. In 2018, worldwide lithium production increased by an estimated 19% to 85,000 tons in response to increased lithium demand for battery productions [20].A similar situation is seen for cobalt.
European lithium battery industry with broad prospects and uncertainties. In 2022, there are approximately 70GWh of lithium battery be produced in Europe, which is a relatively small number compared to other countries like China (545.9GWh). The location of the new projects in relation to the existing/expanded projects is shown in the figure below.

Of its EUR-560-million business plan, the company will invest EUR 450 million to boost its sales network and production capacity up to 6.3 million battery cells by the end of 2023. This effort includes investment in equipment and mergers and acquisitions.
The lithium-ion battery industry relies heavily on the mining of raw materials and production of the batteries—both of which are vulnerable to supply chain interference. Lithium-ion batteries are mainly comprised of four key components: a cathode, anode, separator, and electrolyte, as shown in Figure 1.
Some of the major manufacturers of lithium batteries include CATL, LGChem, BYD, and Samsung. As we step into the more modern-day in our everyday life, technological advancement is undeniable which is why the lithium batteries demand is expected to continuously increase to about 10 times between 2018 and 2030.
An additional €20m is being invested in the production of lithium-ion batteries, with the installation of three highly automated assembly lines for lithium modules and complete lithium battery systems, as well as one assembly line for prototyping and R&D purposes.
Despite expectations that lithium demand will rise from approximately 500,000 metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) in 2021 to some three million to four million metric tons in 2030, we believe that the lithium industry will be able to provide enough product to supply the burgeoning lithium-ion battery industry.
While South Africa has no lithium-ion battery cell manufacturers, several companies are involved in battery pack assembly. Demand for all types of batteries is also expected to come from the rollout of renewable energy projects.
The upgrade will increase annual production capacity of lead-acid motive power products from 4GWh to 5.3GWh gradually until Q3 2022 and will render the Xanthi-based manufacturing unit the largest in the world for industrial, motive, lead-acid batteries.
