Industry Analysis

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY (LIB) MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY IN INDIA
Energy storage technologies are predicted to play a major part in the decarbonization of the electricity and transport sectors, which accounted for 49% of India's total greenhouse gas emissions (CO2 equivalent) in 2016. Among the several energy storage technologies available, lithium-ion batteries are anticipated to dominate the market during the upcoming decade (2021 onwards). Peak electricity demand would rise to 334 gigawatts (GW) by fiscal year 2030, with a total electricity generating need of 2,229 Billing units (BU). Thus, decarbonization of the electricity and transport industries is crucial to combating climate change. India unveiled its ambitious national goals for 2030 at the COP 26 UN Climate Change Conference, which include increasing its non-fossil energy capacity to 500 GW by 2030, obtaining 50% of its electricity needs from renewable sources by 2030, limiting projected carbon emissions by one billion tonnes, and lowering its economy's carbon intensity of its economy by less than 45% by 2030. In India, the lithium-ion battery business is anticipated to experience exponential growth over the next five years (2022 onwards), and the recycling market of these batteries is estimated to be nearly 22-23 GWh in 2030. The lithium-ion battery industry in India is predicted to grow from 2.9 gigawatt hour (GWh) in 2018 to about 132 GWh by 2030 (at a CAGR of 35.5%).

Advanced chemistry cell (ACC) batteries are the foundation of future low-carbon transportation and energy systems. With assistance from government initiatives on the supply and demand sides, India's domestic ACC battery manufacturing business is growing significantly. Critical minerals supply chains, including lithium, cobalt, nickel, and spherical graphite refining for active materials, are critical to achieving local value addition in the fabrication of ACC battery electrodes. The discovery of the country's first lithium reserve in Jammu and Kashmir, as well as another significant reserve in Degana, Rajasthan, opens up a major prospect for local lithium production. According to the Geological Survey of India (GSI) and mining officials, the lithium deposits in these reserves are large enough to supply nearly 80% of India's overall demand.

The cumulative demand for energy storage in India of 903 GWh by 2030, which is divided across many technologies such as lithium-ion batteries, redox flow batteries, and solid-state batteries. The lithium-ion battery market in India is expected to grow at a CAGR of 50% from 20 GWh in 2022 to 220 GWh by 2030. The current focus of Indian enterprises is on battery cell manufacture. However, as more cell manufacturing units are commissioned in India, the upstream process will most likely be the next priority area. These industries include graphite anode and cathode active material manufacture, as well as electrolyte, separator, and current collector manufacturing. These batteries are used in mobile phones, laptop computers, and other similar devices, and their shape and size vary depending on the application.

India can minimise its dependency on imports and assist in increasing resilience in global supply chains by localising the mining and refining value chain of essential minerals. India has joined the US-led Mineral Security Partnership (MSP) to help strengthen crucial mineral supply chains. The collaboration intends to speed up the establishment of varied and sustainable essential mineral supply chains. In addition, government-to-government (G2G) discussions for cooperative exploration and mining are progressing with friendly nations. The Indian government established KABIL to secure a steady supply of crucial and strategic minerals through G2G negotiation and the acquisition of mining assets abroad.

Lithium-ion batteries are electrochemical energy storage systems in which lithium ions serve as a charge carrier between electrodes. The chemistry used for a certain application is determined by a number of parameters, including cost, energy density, cycle life, and the charging rate necessary for the application.

There is a limited supply of lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese precursors, which are all key raw elements needed in the synthesis of active cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries. By 2030, India's LIB cell manufacturing industry will require 193 thousand tonnes of cathode active material, 98 thousand tonnes of anode active material, 91 thousand tonnes of aluminium, 41 thousand tonnes of copper, and 8 thousand tonnes of LiPF6 electrolyte material to produce 100 GWh of batteries. With almost non-existent infrastructure throughout the supply chain and minimal deployment expertise, India must establish greater control over the lithium-ion battery supply chain. Energy storage systems are expected to play a major part in global decarbonization, resulting in an exponential growth in demand. India should make an effort to become a manufacturing powerhouse in addition to trying to satisfy home demand through domestic production. The availability of minerals at reasonable rates will be important to global competitiveness. India's foreign policy must adapt to changing trends and prioritise strategic initiatives in key regions. A concentrated effort on R&D, process optimisation, and recycling can help to lessen the requirement to import cell components from other nations. Academia must immediately begin developing courses and curricula to satisfy the expanding employment demands.
