What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For First-Life EV Battery Market?
The growth of the first-life EV battery market is anticipated to be fuelled by the escalating demand for electric vehicles with greater driving range. These types of electric vehicles (EVs) are designed to cater to large driving distances, often exceeding 400 miles per charge, thanks to advanced battery technology, energy efficiency, and aerodynamics. The surge in preference among consumers for such long distance electric vehicles that don't require frequent charging is pushing this demand. With the quick proliferation of such long-range EVs, manufacturers are encouraged to embrace advanced and more efficient battery technologies, further driving demand in the first-life EV battery market. Citing an instance from Virta Global, a Finland-based technology company with expertise in EV energy digital platforms, the efforts of government to cut down heavy-duty truck emissions has led to the European Union targeting reductions of 45% by 2030 and 90% by 2040. This has resulted in over 800 electric truck models being available worldwide. In 2024, Volvo and Scania unveiled long-range electric trucks which can cover a whopping 600km per charge. Consequently, the escalating demand for electric vehicles with long driving range is propelling the first-life EV battery market's expansion.
