The burgeoning adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is anticipated to serve as a major driver for the lithium-ion batteries market's expansion in the foreseeable future. Electric vehicles rely on battery-powered systems instead of traditional internal combustion engines. Lithium-ion batteries have emerged as a popular choice for EVs due to their superior energy density, prolonged cycle life, and ability to provide the requisite power for substantial driving distances. For instance, the International Energy Agency reported a significant surge in electric vehicle sales, nearly doubling to 6.6 million in 2021 from 3 million in 2020. This growth contributed to an overall increase in electric vehicles on the road to 16.5 million. Thus, the escalating adoption of electric vehicles is a key driver for the expansion of the lithium-ion batteries market.

Safety concerns surrounding lithium-ion batteries represent a significant challenge faced by the lithium-ion batteries market. These batteries can generate substantial energy, leading to potential risks such as explosion or fire. It is crucial to prevent the internal temperature of lithium-ion batteries from exceeding 130°C to avoid thermal runaway. Factors contributing to battery failures include punctures, overcharging, overheating, short circuits, internal cell failure, and manufacturing deficiencies. For example, several Tesla Model S sedans caught fire due to damage to the battery shield caused by road debris. These safety concerns highlight the hindrances facing the market growth of lithium-ion batteries.
