Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Market: Key Drivers, Trends, Challenges, and Customer Landscape

The decline in the cost of lithium-ion batteries is notably driving the market growth, although competition from other batteries may impede the market growth. 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.

Key Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Market Driver

The decline in lithium-ion battery cost is notably driving the lithium iron phosphate battery market growth. Lithium-ion batteries are more expensive than lead-acid and nickel-metal hydride batteries. However, the manufacturing cost of lithium-ion batteries and the cost of battery packs have fallen significantly in recent years due to the increase in production scale and manufacturing efficiency. The cost of lithium-ion batteries decreased by about 85% between 2010 and 2018. The decline is also due to the increasing adoption of battery technology in the automotive industry and the development of more cost-effective production methods by suppliers.

Lithium-ion batteries account for a large portion of the manufacturing cost of electric vehicles, so falling prices are driving down the total cost of ownership of electric vehicles. Lithium-ion battery vendors are making their products more competitive than alternative technologies such as lead-acid and nickel-metal hydride batteries. The continuous research and development of lithium-ion batteries also improve the performance of automobiles. Lithium-ion battery prices are expected to continue to fall as capacity continues to increase due to strong demand for electric vehicles. The declining cost of lithium-ion batteries (including lithium iron phosphate batteries) coupled with government support for electric vehicles (EVs) and increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries will boost the growth of the market. 

Significant Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Market Trends

Growing investments in EV charging infrastructure is a key trend influencing the lithium iron phosphate battery market growth. Public charging facilities for electric vehicles are one of the main concerns of potential buyers. However, several initiatives and developments have been made to promote the acceptance of these eco-friendly vehicles around the world. Developments related to charging infrastructure depend on various framework conditions of national and supranational politics and local conditions. In addition, factors such as charging station deployment goals, regulatory issues, subsidy offerings, and funding mobilization for installation are important drivers for the development of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

Both the public and private sectors are investing heavily in increasing the penetration of EV charging stations to boost EV adoption. In many cases, EV charging rates are expected to be similar to conventional vehicle refueling. Automakers and political groups are therefore investing heavily in research and development to accelerate charging speeds at public charging stations. Therefore, EV charging infrastructure will continue to evolve with the contributions of several key members of the EV value chain. This will directly increase the sales of electric vehicles, driving the growth of the market during the forecast period. 

Major  Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery Market Challenge

Competition from other batteries is challenging the lithium iron phosphate battery market growth. Lithium iron phosphate batteries face a high risk of being replaced by multiple energy storage technologies, including lithium-ion batteries that work on different chemistries, non-lithium-ion batteries, and fuel cells. Lithium-ion battery chemistries include lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide, lithium titanate, and solid-state batteries. All these chemicals have their own unique advantages. For example, Lithium Nickel Cobalt Alumina can have either high specific power or high specific energy. However, the inclusion of nickel improves the specific energy, making these batteries suitable for electric vehicles and power tools. 

All-solid-state batteries are an evolutionary form of lithium-ion batteries, with significantly improved performance compared to lithium-ion batteries. All-solid-state batteries use a solid electrolyte instead of the liquid electrolyte used in lithium-ion batteries. Solid electrolytes result in higher battery energy densities at smaller sizes, providing longer life and improved battery safety. Significant research and development work is being done to improve this battery technology. Thus, the availability of numerous energy storage technologies will hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The automotive segment was valued at USD 2,579.20 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. The growth of the automotive segment is due to the government's increasing focus on pollution from vehicle exhaust fumes. Electric vehicles(EVs) are a viable alternative to traditional internal combustion vehicles that run on diesel or petrol. EVs are gaining government support due to growing pollution concerns and the need for a cleaner energy mix. Many countries have set targets for EV deployment and offer subsidies and incentives to drive adoption. For example, the UK, France, Belgium, Norway, and the Netherlands offer subsidies for the purchase and ownership tax of electric vehicles. Additionally, several countries, such as France and the UK, have already announced plans to ban the sale of diesel vehicles in their respective countries by 2040. Some members of the value chain, such as governments, EV manufacturers, and private organizations, are stepping up efforts to install new EV charging infrastructure to further promote EV adoption.
