Synthetic Graphite Plays A Key Role in Meeting Battery Demand Surge

While the demand for electric vehicles is growing, spurred by government incentives and a push to decarbonize the transportation sector, the global battery industry is set to attract significant attention and investment. As a result, the request for battery cathodes and anodes which are core components in the battery manufacturing process, is also set to rocket.

 

Anodes are primarily composed of natural or synthetic graphite, which have unique benefits and drawbacks. A synthetic graphite anode generally has higher efficiency and is of premium quality, supporting higher-end applications. Natural graphite has superior Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) credentials as its production does not require heavy graphitization, but converting synthetic-graphite raw materials into battery-grade materials – which uses vast amounts of energy and increases production costs and emissions. Battery manufacturers are frantically building production capacity to meet demand. Manufacturers need to go from zero to a hundred at breakneck speed, so it is no surprise that they are leaning toward synthetic graphite products. To meet growing demand, global synthetic graphite production capacity is set to spike. China will dominate the capacity growth, led by legacy anode producers.
