The growth can be attributed to the fact that lithium-ion
batteries ofer additional benets and features than
nickel-cadmium batteries. Lithium-ion batteries last longer,
increased density of their cells allow longer run time on a
single charge and there is no memory or lazy battery efect.
The manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries is
concentrated in countries such as South
Korea, Japan and China. These countries
account for 85-90% of the global lithium-ion
production. Korean companies have
increased their presence in the consumer
electronics lithium-ion market. Samsung LDI
and LG Chemical are the two largest Korean
lithium-ion battery making companies.
Going forward, the lithium-ion battery market is expected to grow at a CAGR
of 12.6% between 2012 and 2016. The rise can be attributed to elevated
demand for consumer electronics products such as smart phones and tablets
coupled with growing demand for electric vehicles.
