Latest News- Cobalt Sulfate Market: Battery is expected to lead the Application segment during 2024-2028
The Cobalt Sulfate Market is being driven by Increased demand for cobalt sulfate due to growth of electric vehicle industry
The Cobalt Sulfate Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.52% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 502.9 million. The global cobalt market is experiencing significant growth due to the increasing demand for nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) and lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles (EVs) and energy storage systems. This demand-supply imbalance is driving up the price of cobalt, as existing mines struggle to meet the increasing demand. To address this issue, new cobalt mines are being explored and developed, including in Canada, where several mining firms have identified potential sources. Notably, eCobalt's Idaho Cobalt Project is the only advanced primary cobalt development project in the US, with an expected annual production capacity of 1,500 tons of cobalt sulfate once operational. This new supply is crucial to mitigating the current cobalt shortage and ensuring the continued production of high-performance batteries.
