Demand for manganese in batteries is set to grow over eight-fold this decade, due to new battery chemistries and rising electric vehicle sales, according to Benchmark’s Manganese Sulphate Market Outlook.
According to BloombergNEF, demand for manganese from the battery sector is expected to increase ninefold by 2030. Manufacturers are taking an interest in manganese because it is more affordable and could help lower battery costs. At an event last year, Tesla CEO Elon Musk reiterated the potential for manganese-based batteries.
Whether high-manganese batteries catch hold or cells with just 10% manganese in the cathode, such as the popular NMC-811 battery, the sheer volume of EVs expected to hit global highways over the next decade is going to significantly push the demand for manganese higher.
Demand for battery-grade manganese is expected to increase by 15 times from 2020 to 2031 to 1.2 million tonnes per year, according to the Battery Solutions division of E Source, a utilities research firm.
Martin Kepman, the chief executive officer (CEO) of Canadian manganese mining company Manganese X Energy Corp, said in an interview: "Manganese is a candidate for disruption in the lithium-ion battery space. It has elemental qualities that have the potential to improve density, capacity, rechargeability, safety and battery longevity.
Manganese batteries have been attracting attention recently as potential alternatives to lithium batteries. Usually, cobalt, nickel and lithium are the most in-demand metals for EV batteries but manganese is also useful. It is a cathode material in EVs, designed to increase their safety aspect, energy density and cost effectiveness.
