The nickel manganese cobalt battery market size exceeded USD 30.5 billion in 2024 and is estimated to exhibit 14.8% CAGR between 2025 and 2034 driven by growth in renewable energy sector.
This drives the growth of the nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery market. As the nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) batteries are widely used various government authorities have established favorable policies to ease the supply and regulate cost of minerals including Nickel and Cobalt.
The NMC market reached USD 21.9 billion, USD 25.8 billion, and USD 30.5 billion in 2022, 2023 and 2024 respectively. The nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery market has been observing significant growth due to growing demand for efficient batteries from different industrial applications such as EV, ESS and many more.
Market players including CATL, Clarios, Exide Technologies, Tesla, Saft are the top 5 companies in the nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery market. The key 5 players hold nearly 40% of market share. Among these, CATL is one of the major share holding player in the market.
Companies like Tesla are working to develop nickel-cobalt-aluminum (NCA) batteries in their effort to reduce dependence on cobalt and further improve overall battery performance. Demand for cobalt is expected to remain solid into 2025, with nearly all major automobile companies having pledged to ramp up production of EVs.
For example, the price of cobalt has fallen from roughly $70,000 per metric ton in 2022 to about $30,000 in 2024. Similarly, the price for lithium carbonate has fallen from a high of approximately $70,000 per metric ton to well below $15,000 in 2024.
