Will battery demand grow in 2024?

The finance group revised its global battery demand growth projection to 29% for 2024, down from the previous estimate of 35%, with a 31% growth expected in 2023. Goldman also forecasts a 40% reduction in battery pack prices over 2023 and 2024, followed by a continued decline to reach a total 50% reduction by 2025-2026.

Why are battery prices so low in 2023?

When we talk about the battery from, let's say, 2023 to all the way to 2030, roughly over 40% of the decline is just coming from lower commodity costs, because we had a lot of green inflation during 2020 to 2023. The level of those metal prices was very high. What’s enabling battery makers to increase energy density so dramatically?

How much will EV batteries cost in 2026?

This year, prices are expected to drop further to $111 per kWh, and by 2026, they are projected to reach just $80. In two years, EV batteries will cost nearly 50 percent less than they did in 2023, bringing electric vehicles to ownership cost parity with gasoline-powered vehicles in the US – and that's before factoring in subsidies.
