Top 10 Lithium-ion Battery Manufacturers in the World

A recent Benzo Energy · UFine Technology report gives us a statistical data that substantiates the growing popularity of Li-ion batteries. It tells us that between 2012 and 2016, the lithium industry’s growth almost doubled from USD 11.7 billion to 22.5 billion. Looking at the current scheme of things, the same report also estimated that in the next five years, the global lithium industry will cross USD 70 billion.

Top 10 Lithium-ion Battery Manufacturers

This week, we select the top 10 companies that are manufacturing lithium ion batteries.

Take a look:


1. Panasonic

Panasonic’s tryst with lithium ion began with the boom in electric automotive. Panasonic is currently manufacturing batteries for tech and automotive giants Tesla, whose cars are well-renowned in the world for their efficiency and performance. Apart from that, the firm is also involved in manufacturing communication systems and security systems.

2. CATL - Japanese and Korean opponents

Established: 2011 Headquarters: Ningde, Fujian

In 2018, CATL power battery sales revenue was about 22 billion yuan.

3. BYD

Joining the ranks is a Chinese firm that offers its lithium ion battery technology to the automobile industry. The firm makes both lithium ion batteries along with electric cars that makes it one of the very few carmakers with an in-house battery manufacturing department. Recently, BYD won multiple bids to supply electric cars for the US market, despite the ongoing trade war between the US and China.

4. Samsung SDI

A complete subsidiary of Samsung electronics, Samsung SDI is dedicated to fuel research and innovation in lithium ion technology, both for in-house use and for potential clients elsewhere. Currently, the firm is engaged in the production of lithium ion batteries, solar energy panels, and energy storage systems among other things. Samsung SDI has a presence in some of biggest markets of the world including the likes of Germany, Malaysia, and the USA.

5. Toshiba

Toshiba has made a huge investment in its R&D department for lithium technology. The firm is currently engaged in manufacture and sales of lithium ion batteries and related storage solutions for the automotive and telecommunication sectors. As part of its diversification process, the firm has engaged itself in the production of general logic ICs, and flash storages as well.

6. LG Chem

LG Chem is one of the world leaders in making lithium ion batteries as it caters to a wide variety of industries.
