Graphite Market

Global natural graphite demand to grow 7 times to approximately 5.9Mt by 2030

Assuming 45% synthetic graphite into the anode and "conservative view" of silicon use - UBS Bank (Mar 2021)

  • EV adoption rate is increased from 17% to 20% by 2025 and from 40% to 50% in 2030 going from just over 3m vehicles last year to 46m vehicles in 2030.

  • Lithium-ion battery demand jumps 17-fold to 4,605 GWh by 2030 with energy storage making up around 6% of the total.

  • Natural graphite annual demand grows by a factor of seven by 2030 (assuming 45% synthetic graphite into the anode and “conservative view” of silicon use) to roughly 5.9mt.
