Lithium-based batteries are becoming increasingly important for various commercial and industrial end-users in the US, spanning a diverse range of markets – from electric vehicles (EVs) to energy storage, to aviation and marine, to remote power and industrial applications.
The Biden Administration climate crisis agenda, which aims for carbon-free electricity generation by 2035, places the US on the path of net zero emissions by 2050, and ensures that demand for advanced eco-friendly batteries across sectors will continue to grow.
However, the challenge of creating a competitive and sustainable battery manufacturing industry in the US has been described as immense. This would involve meeting projected demand, ensuring that the US has access to critical materials used in batteries, and creating relevant jobs on US soil. At the same time, other countries are in the stages of establishing vertical battery manufacturing supply chains, underpinned by national strategies; for example, the EU''s Strategic Action Plan on Batteries and China''s Made in China 2025 strategy.
Establishing a new strategic industry
In order to focus investments on creating a domestic lithium-ion battery manufacturing value chain, the Federal Consortium for Advanced Batteries (FCAB) published the National Blueprint for Lithium Batteries in 2021. Its five key goals are to
Additional capacity demand
According to FCAB, while US-based manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries needs to "greatly expand" to meet growing domestic market demand, the country has a strong foundation on which to build additional manufacturing capacity. The US had about 8% (59GWh) of the 747GWh of global EV lithium-ion cell manufacturing capacity in 2020 (Benchmark Mineral Intelligence), with the forecast being for it to grow to 224GWh by 2025. This output, however, does not suffice to supply even the annual needs of the American passenger EV market.
The US is already host to a diverse mix of companies and technologies that make up a domestic advanced battery value chain catering to different end-use sectors. Some are exclusively focused on one or two sectors, such as EVs or energy storage systems (ESS). Others are addressing a host of other applications within the industrial battery space, spanning logistics (forklift trucks and material handling), marine and shipping, telecommunications, UPS, off-grid and grid storage. The expertise of the Sunlight Group, world-leading technology company and provider of integrated and innovative energy storage solutions, lies in the development, production and distribution of batteries and energy storage systems for industrial, off-road, commercial, and advanced applications.
