Recycling of lithium-ion batteries in India- $1,000 million opportunity

Recycling of lithium-ion batteries in India- $1,000 million opportunity

The lithium-ion batteries market in India is expected to grow significantly in the next five years. Some of the important initiatives by the Government of India that will accelerate the growth of this market are National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020, with a projection of getting 6-7 million electric vehicles on Indian roads by 2020 and target of 175 GW installation of renewable energy by 2022. JMK Research estimates the annual lithium-ion battery market in India to increase at a CAGR of 37.5% to reach 132 GWh in 2030. Cumulative lithium-ion battery market size is estimated to increase from 2.9 GWh in 2018 to reach to about 800 GWh by 2030.

With this report, JMK Research is highlighting the current state of the lithium-ion battery market in India, potential of recycling and the associated opportunities and challenges. The report focusses on recycling mechanisms followed worldwide along with the benefits of recycling. Last but not the least the report analyses the regulatory frameworks of international markets regarding recycling and management of lithium-ion battery waste and provides the Indian government with a few regulatory recommendations which would boost the battery recycling industry.
