The growth can be attributed to the fact that lithium-ion batteries o�er additional benefits and features than nickel-cadmium batteries. Lithium-ion batteries last longer, increased density of their cells allow longer run time on a single charge and there is no memory or lazy battery e�ect.
The manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries is concentrated in countries such as South Korea, Japan and China. These countries account for 85-90% of the global lithium-ion production. Korean companies have increased their presence in the consumer electronics lithium-ion market. Samsung LDI and LG Chemical are the two largest Korean lithium-ion battery making companies.
Going forward, the lithium-ion battery market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.6% between 2012 and 2016. The rise can be attributed to elevated
demand for consumer electronics products such as smart phones and tablets coupled with growing demand for electric vehicles.
