Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The legislation support for battery recycling is driving growth in the battery recycling market. Toxics, such as iron and hazardous chemical substances, are contained in batteries, particularly those found in electronic devices. When improperly disposed of, these materials can leach into the soil and water, posing health risks to humans and wildlife. Battery recycling ensures the safe extraction and disposal of these materials.
Battery recycling helps businesses and industries comply with these regulations, avoiding legal penalties and ensuring responsible waste handling. The health and safety risks of workers in the field of waste management and disposal processes, as well as for communities living close to landfill sites, are reduced when e-waste is managed, including battery recycling. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the global battery recycling market during the forecast period.
The increasing government support for EVs is a key trend in battery recycling. Countries have begun reconsidering the use of fossil fuels in their transport sector due to growing environmental concerns and increasing GHG emissions around the world. The only possible replacement for fossil fuel-powered vehicles is EVs. Numerous countries are introducing targets and directives to promote the shift from diesel and petrol vehicles to EVs.
Moreover, the growing demand for battery-operated EVs and HEVs will increase the demand for battery recycling, as it is an essential element of the battery. To promote EV adoption, such measures have been taken by governments in different countries, and decreased carbon emissions are expected to drive the growth of the battery industry, which, in turn, is expected to drive the growth of the global battery recycling market during the forecast period.
The low yield of recycling batteries is a major challenge faced by the battery recycling market. Batteries do not produce efficient and economical output after recycling, even though their shelf life has been extended. OEMs offer two basic ways of reusing batteries. If the life of the appliance ends earlier than the completion of the lithium battery life cycle, the battery can be reused by installing it in another appliance.
The recycling process also involves shredding, separation of non-metallic and metallic materials, smelting, neutralizing hazardous substances, and purification of the recovered metals. Compared to the large battery industry, recycling is not a big business. It is expected to hinder the growth of the global battery recycling market during the forecast period.
The market research report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator’s stage to the laggard’s stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.

APAC is estimated to contribute 36% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. APAC dominates the global battery recycling market due to the presence of several large battery manufacturers and manufacturing units of battery-powered equipment and automobiles in the region. The region has the highest population in the world and is the largest secondary battery consumer.
Moreover, the rising consumption of consumer electronics and vehicles is driven by a rise in household incomes and improvements in living standards across the region. Rising environmental concerns due to improper battery disposal drive the growth of the regional battery recycling market. With the high consumption of batteries in the consumer electronics, automotive, and energy storage segments, recycling batteries has become a necessity. Moreover, numerous countries are focusing on addressing these issues and overcoming the pollution caused by improper battery disposal.
In 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 negatively impacted the battery recycling market in APAC. However, in 2021, vaccination campaigns conducted by governments across the region played a pivotal role in stabilizing economies and restoring business operations. As vaccination drives gained momentum across the APAC region, countries were able to gradually lift lockdown restrictions, allowing battery recycling operations to resume. It also makes manufacturers more conscious of the need to design products with better recycling potential and encourages consumers to take part in battery recycling programs. Such factors are expected to drive the growth of the regional battery recycling market during the forecast period.
