Consumption of lithium in rechargeable batteries by end use, 2012-2017, kt LCE. Batteries accounted for 27% of global lithium consumption in 2012, up from 15% in 2007 and 8% in 2002. The lithium industry is therefore becoming more reliant on rechargeable batteries to sustain high rates of future demand growth, Roskill concludes.
