The climatic instability and rising pollution concern coupled with the depleting fossil fuel reserves have accelerated the adoption of alternative sources of energy. The issue of sustainability to meet the global energy demand at present and in the future as well, has led to a transitioning phase from using fuel reserves to renewable energy sources such as batteries. Over the years, the battery industry has gone through a lot of evolution to serve the energy requirements, such as long battery lives and high energy storage capacity, among others, in an efficient way. A major innovation in the battery industry is lithium-ion batteries, whose demand is largely driven up by significant increase in the inclusion of electric vehicles for transportation purpose.
Spherical graphite is a niche technology contributing to the ongoing energy storage revolution by accelerating the performance of lithium-ion batteries. It is majorly used as a battery anode material in the lithium-ion batteries. The demand for battery anode material is rising, owing to the upsurge in the demand for lithium-ion batteries.
The spherical graphite used in the batteries is of two types namely- synthetic graphite and natural spherical graphite. Traditionally synthetic spherical graphite was used as battery anode material, but now its demand is outpaced by the natural spherical graphite, a new alternative which is cheaper and has minimal carbon footprint. This alternative is being preferred by the consumers, owing to its environment friendly formation process. The technology is at a nascent stage and the producers are yet to master the usage of natural spherical graphite efficiently. Moreover, it is a cost effective and an environment friendly option.
Currently, China dominates the production and consumption of spherical graphite. The enforcement of government policies has been acting both as driving and restraining factors for the growth of spherical graphite market in China. Various environmental regulations have led factories to cut down on their production limits. On the contrary in order to bring a renaissance in the road transport, China has been promoting the growth of electric vehicles and lithium-ion batteries as a part of energy storage solution. These dynamics have somehow changed the supply and demand pattern of the spherical graphite market in China. However, it would be interesting to see the growth patterns of other regions in the capacity utilization and production of spherical graphite market. The growth of spherical graphite has gained momentum, since the advent of giga-factories. The upcoming giga-factories are expected to generate constant demand for battery anode materials, leading to several players investing in the production of spherical graphite.
