This report covers market characteristics, size and growth, segmentation, regional and country breakdowns, competitive landscape, market shares, trends and strategies for this market. It traces the market’s historic and forecast market growth by geography.
The vanadium market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.47 billion in 2024 to $2.62 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to steel and alloy production, battery technologies, urbanization and infrastructure growth, renewable energy.
The vanadium market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.28 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to green energy transition, e-mobility, infrastructure investments, space exploration. Major trends in the forecast period include vanadium recycling, vanadium nitride batteries, vanadium in aerospace, energy storage integration.
The anticipated growth of the vanadium market is being driven by the increasing adoption of large-scale energy storage technologies. These technologies encompass systems designed to store energy for future use, mitigating energy supply and demand fluctuations, offering backup power during outages, and facilitating energy storage for various applications, including transportation. Vanadium plays a crucial role in energy storage technologies, such as vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs), enabling the storage and release of substantial energy over extended periods. As of July 2023, an International Energy Agency (IEA) report revealed that the total installed grid-scale battery storage capacity had reached nearly 28 GW by the end of 2022, with a 75% increase compared to 2021, and around 11 GW of new storage capacity installed. Furthermore, grid-scale battery capacity for storage is projected to grow exponentially, reaching approximately 970 GW, a 35-fold increase, from 2022 to 2030. Consequently, the development of large-scale energy storage technologies will be a driving force behind the vanadium market.
The growing steel production is expected to drive the expansion of the vanadium market in the future. Steel production involves creating steel from iron ore and/or scrap, and vanadium plays a crucial role in this process. It is an essential component in the production of vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) and is widely used as an alloying element in steel manufacturing. For example, in October 2024, the Press Information Bureau, an India-based government agency, reported a significant increase in crude steel production, which rose from 109.137 million tonnes (MT) in 2019-20 to 144.299 MT in 2023-24, reflecting a strong 13.4% growth from the previous year's 127.197 MT in 2022-23. The domestic steel industry's capacity also grew from 142.299 MT per year in 2019-20 to 179.515 MT in 2023-24, further boosting production. Capacity utilization reached 81% during this period. As a result, the rise in steel production is expected to propel the growth of the vanadium market.
Leading companies in the vanadium market are intensifying their efforts toward innovative vanadium production techniques, with a particular focus on belt filter technology, to strengthen their market position. Belt filter technology is an industrial system designed for solid-liquid separation processes, especially within the chemical industry for dewatering sludges. For instance, in September 2022, U.S. Vanadium LLC, a U.S.-based manufacturer specializing in various vanadium chemicals, introduced an industrial Belt Filter plant. This facility significantly improved vanadium recovery rates, reduced operational costs, increased recycling initiatives, and reduced the facility's overall environmental footprint. The introduction of the new Belt Filter technology enhances vanadium recovery and increases the production of valuable vanadium products. Importantly, the belt filter produces a relatively dry cake with just a 5-6% moisture content, making it suitable for various industrial applications.
In September 2022, US Vanadium LLC, a U.S.-based manufacturer specializing in specialty vanadium chemicals, successfully completed the acquisition of the Materials Processing Plant from Saint-Gobain SA. The financial details of this transaction have not been disclosed. This strategic acquisition positions US Vanadium to expand and strengthen its production of high-purity vanadium and related products. By incorporating this facility into its operations, US Vanadium anticipates improving the flexibility and processing capacity of its diverse vanadium feedstock sources. Saint-Gobain SA, a French-based company, operates the materials processing plant located in Benton, Arkansas. This facility is responsible for grinding and roasting vanadium-containing feedstock to produce high-purity vanadium products.

The vanadium market consists of sales of aluminum ore, vanadate, carnotite, roscoelite and patronite. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is, the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
Vanadium is a metallic element that is extracted from minerals and can be found either as a light-gray powder with a silvery sheen or in the form of a malleable metal, known for its low neutron-absorbing characteristics. Vanadium is commonly utilized as an alloying element in steel, contributing to its strength, resilience, and resistance to corrosion.
The primary types of vanadium include vanadium pentoxide, vanadium ferrovanadium, aluminum-vanadium alloys, vanadium chemicals, and others. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) is an inorganic chemical that typically presents itself as a brown or yellow solid, but when freshly precipitated from an aqueous solution, it can appear deep orange. Various production methods, such as aluminothermic reduction and silicon reduction techniques, are employed in various industries like iron and steel, chemicals, and titanium alloys. These industries serve end users like the automotive sector, chemical industry, energy storage, and others.
