據油價網3月2日消息稱，隨著能源轉型的加快，各國和消費者都在努力實現脫碳，全球電池需求可能呈指數級增長，到2030年將達到每年9太瓦時(TWh)，是2021年水平的15倍。

Rystad Energy 研究表明，盡管 2021 年全球電池需求為 580 吉瓦時 (GWh)，是 2020 年總量的兩倍多，但全球供應仍然能夠保持下去。然而，隨著人們對乘用車電池技術和固定存儲技術的需求大幅增長，這一局面將在未來幾年發生改變，這將給供應鏈帶來壓力。

這一需求預測與全球變暖1.6度的情景和能源系統所需的變化是一致的。它也不受任何潛在供應問題的限制。在零部件方面，鋰離子電池將在這十年主導市場，而鈉離子電池的需求將在2030年實現。

乘用電動汽車 (EV) 將成為未來電池增長的最重要貢獻者，到本世紀二十年代末將占總需求的 55% 左右。到2030年，這些電池的需求預計將達到4.9太瓦時，比2021年相對較小的373吉瓦時的總需求高出13倍以上。

固定存儲將是第二重要的貢獻者，預計到2030年的需求將超過2.5太瓦時，占總市場的29%。隨著世界逐漸遠離化石燃料，不穩定的可再生能源將扮演更重要的角色，因此到2021年，存儲需求將從139吉瓦時飆升。

輕型至中型商用車在未來將主要實現電氣化，到2030年將貢獻約1太瓦時的需求。電氣化的航空和航運也會有電池需求，但這些行業的總需求不會對全球格局產生重大影響。

Rystad Energy全球能源系統負責人Marius Foss說：“隨著能源轉型的加快，電池需求的增長是不可避免的，但在不久的將來，如果沒有對電池技術的大量投資或改進，全球供應將出現短缺。根據已公布的目標，到2030年電池供應將達到5.5太瓦時，只能滿足約60%的預期需求。超級工廠正在全球迅速建立，這種供應前景可能會改變。然而，這些持續投資的重要性不容低估。”

Global Battery Demand To Increase 15-Fold As EV Boom Takes Off

As the energy transition quickens and countries and consumers strive to decarbonize, global battery demand could surge exponentially and approach nine terawatt-hours (TWh) annually by 2030, 15 times the levels seen in 2021.

Rystad Energy research shows that although global battery demand in 2021 stood at 580 gigawatt-hours (GWh), more than double 2020’s total, global supply was still able to keep up. However, that is set to change in the coming years as the appetite for battery technologies in passenger vehicles and stationary storage grows significantly, straining the supply chain.

This demand projection is in line with a 1.6-degree global warming scenario and the changes required to energy systems. It is also unconstrained by any potential supply issues. In terms of components, lithium-ion batteries will dominate the market this decade, although sodium-ion battery demand will materialize by 2030.

Passenger electric vehicles (EV) will be the most significant contributor to future battery growth, accounting for about 55% of total demand by the end of the decade. Demand for these batteries is expected to hit 4.9 TWh by 2030, more than 13 times higher than 2021’s comparatively tiny total of 373 GWh.

Stationary storage will be the next-most significant contributor, with a projected demand of more than 2.5 TWh in 2030, 29% of the total market. The need for storage is set to soar from 139 GWh in 2021 because of the more prominent role that volatile renewable energy sources will play as the world shifts away from fossil fuels.

Light to medium-heavy commercial vehicles will mainly be electrified in the future, contributing about 1 TWh of demand by 2030. Electrified aviation and shipping will also have battery needs, but the total demand from these sectors will not significantly impact the global picture.

“Battery demand growth is inevitable as the energy transition quickens, but global supply will fall short without substantial investment or improvements in battery technology in the immediate future. based on announced targets, battery supply will hit 5.5 TWh by 2030, meeting only about 60% of the expected demand. Gigafactories are being built quickly worldwide, and this supply outlook will likely change. Still, the importance of these continued investments cannot be understated,” says Marius Foss, head of global energy systems at Rystad Energy.
