China Pushes Ahead in Battery Technology Race

6 days ago | idtechex.com | Alex Holland

China has emerged as the undisputed frontrunner in battery technology development and industrial scale-up. From incremental improvements to lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries to breakthroughs in sodium-ion and next-generation chemistries, Chinese companies are setting the pace in performance, cost-effectiveness, and production capacity.
Self-Healing Materials Market Grows in Construction Industry

2 weeks ago | idtechex.com | Conor O'Brien

Every year, industrialized nations lose approximately 3% of GDP due to issues associated with material corrosion and degradation. In particular, damage to concrete structures and infrastructure, ranging from small cracks to complete failure, can lead to severe disruptions, and repairs can incur significant expense. But what if damaged concrete had the ability to self-heal microcracks before they could propagate into larger-scale issues?
Sodium-ion: The Battery Built for Trade Resilience

2 weeks ago | idtechex.com | Shazan Siddiqi

Amidst rising tariffs, geopolitical tensions, and growing restrictions on battery material exports, the case for a resilient, domestically anchored battery industry has never been stronger. Sodium-ion technology, leveraging abundant and locally sourced materials, is emerging as a compelling alternative to lithium-ion, particularly in light of critical mineral bottlenecks and trade volatility.
US Tariffs Impact on the EV Charging Market

3 weeks ago | idtechex.com | Shazan Siddiqi

The recent US tariffs implemented in 2025 will significantly impact the EV charging market, affecting both the physical charging equipment and the broader electrical infrastructure required to support it. Potential impact on charging hardware Many EV chargers rely on high-quality copper wiring for power transmission. Tariffs that increase the cost of copper are likely to drive up the cost of cable manufacturing.

Improvements to battery technology will be key for various sectors, including for developing EVs with equivalent performance to ICE vehicles, the electrification of mass market electric cars, electrified aircraft, and higher performance, longer-lasting electronic devices.
US Tariffs on Silver to Drive Innovation in the Conductive Inks Market

1 month ago | idtechex.com | Conor O'Brien

The conductive inks market has been forecast to exceed US$6.5 billion by 2034; however, the imposed tariffs by the United States of America could have a dramatic impact on the technology landscape for conductive inks. Silver flake-based ink is the dominant ink type globally, but up to 80% of the required silver is imported to the USA.
Li-ion Battery Recycling Market 2025-2045: Markets, Forecasts, Technologies, and Players

1 month ago | idtechex.com | Conrad Nichols |Alex Holland

IDTechEx forecasts that the Li-ion battery recycling market will reach US$52B in value by 2045. Li-ion battery (LIB) demand continues to grow across electric vehicle (EV), energy storage system (ESS), and consumer electronics markets. The sustainability of Li-ion batteries relies on their entire lifecycle management, including at end-of-life (EOL). Eventually, LIBs no longer meet their performance requirements and reach EOL.
Next-Generation Battery Technologies Key to Accessing US$400b Market

1 month ago | idtechex.com | Alex Holland

The global market for Li-ion battery cells alone is forecast to exceed US$400 billion by 2035, driven primarily by demand for battery electric cars and vehicles.
Sodium-ion Batteries - Key Takeaways and Killer Applications

1 month ago | idtechex.com | Shazan Siddiqi

In the first of this new series, IDTechEx Senior Technology Analyst Shazan Siddiqi caught up with Darren Tan, CEO of UNIGRID Battery, at Cambridge EnerTech's International Battery Seminar 2025 in Orlando, to discuss the evolving battery landscape. With geopolitical tensions reshaping supply chains, localizing battery production has never been more critical. While sodium-ion won't be the answer to all applications, it's poised to play a key role in the future of stationary energy storage.
