The "Global Market for Graphite 2025-2035" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global graphite market demonstrates strong growth driven primarily by surging demand from the electric vehicle (EV) battery sector. Current market dynamics are characterized by Chinese dominance in both mining and processing, accounting for approximately 70% of natural graphite production and 90% of processing capacity. The market faces supply chain diversification pressures, with major investments in new production facilities outside China.

Natural graphite production in 2024 is estimated at 1.3 million tonnes, while synthetic graphite production reaches approximately 3 million tonnes. Prices remain elevated due to strong demand and supply constraints, with high-quality flake graphite commanding $2,000-2,400 per tonne and spherical graphite reaching $4,000-4,700 per tonne.

Key market developments include:

• Accelerating EV battery demand
• Supply chain regionalization efforts
• Processing capacity expansion outside China
• Rising energy costs affecting synthetic graphite production
• Growing emphasis on ESG compliance

The market is projected to experience substantial growth, driven by:

• EV battery demand reaching 9,300 GWh by 2035
