Battery Manufacturing in the US industry analysis

Battery manufacturers have faced significant revenue volatility over recent years. The 2020 pandemic significantly hurt consumer spending, pressured exports and disrupted supply chains, resulting in revenue dipping. As demand for electric vehicles (EV) has strengthened, demand for lithium-ion battery packs has swelled in tandem. In response, battery manufacturers have accepted several new entrants specializing in EV battery pack manufacturing, making future demand for automotive batteries promising. Although demand for batteries bounced back during the 2021 recovery, unfavorable economic conditions, including elevated inflation, weakened battery sales. As a result, revenue has grown at an estimated CAGR of 0.6% to $11.9 billion through the end of 2024, including a 1.1% boost in 2024 alone.

Trends and Insights

  • Battery manufacturers are experiencing steady demand driven by the latest innovations. These include faster charging times, reduced weight and smaller sizes, enabling producers to meet consumer and buyer needs for more efficient and compact energy solutions.
  • Battery manufacturers cater to various industries and consumers. Producers sell different battery types through retail and wholesale channels domestically and globally, providing crucial energy solutions for numerous applications.
  • Battery manufacturers benefit from being close to downstream markets, particularly near downstream manufacturing sectors. These strategies enable producers to give buyers access to new technological innovations, providing a competitive edge in the rapidly evolving industry.
  • Battery producers are racing to cut costs and shrink sizes. Companies aim to develop the most durable, compact batteries at the lowest prices, driving intense internal competition.
