Automotive lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery demand increased by about 65% to 550 GWh in 2022, from about 330 GWh in 2021, primarily as a result of growth in electric passenger car sales, with new registrations increasing by 55% in 2022 relative to 2021.	市場對電動車用的鋰離子電池的需求從2021年的每年330GWh增加至2022年的550GWh，上升65%。這主要是因為電動客車銷售量增加。對比2021年，2022年電動車註冊量增加了55%。
In China, battery demand for vehicles grew over 70%, while electric car sales increased by 80% in 2022 relative to 2021, with growth in battery demand slightly tempered by an increasing share of PHEVs. Battery demand for vehicles in the United States grew by around 80%, despite electric car sales only increasing by around 55% in 2022. While the average battery size for battery electric cars in the United States only grew by about 7% in 2022, the average battery electric car battery size remains about 40% higher than the global average, due in part to the higher share of SUVs in US electric car sales relative to other major markets, as well as manufacturers’ strategies to offer longer all-electric driving ranges.	中國對車用電池的需求增長了超過70%，而2022年電動車銷售量對比2021年上升了80%。其中，插電式混能電動車的佔比上升，略微抑制了電池需求的增長。與此同時，雖然美國的電動車銷售量在2022年僅增加55%，但其對車用電池的需求約增加了80%。儘管2022年美國電動車的平均電池容量僅增加7%，但其平均電動車電池容量仍比全球平均水平高出40%。部分原因是SUV在美國的銷售量所佔比例比其他主要市場高，加上生產商推出策略，希望提供續航更長的電動車駕駛體驗。
Global sales of BEV and PHEV cars are outpacing sales of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and as BEV and PHEV battery sizes are larger, battery demand further increases as a result.	純電動車和插電式混能電動車在全球的銷售量正超越混能電動車的銷量。同時，由於純電動車和插電式混能電動車的電池容量較大，進一步推動對電池的需求。
The increase in battery demand drives the demand for critical materials. In 2022, lithium demand exceeded supply (as in 2021) despite the 180% increase in production since 2017. In 2022, about 60% of lithium, 30% of cobalt and 10% of nickel demand was for EV batteries. Just five years earlier, in 2017, these shares were around 15%, 10% and 2%, respectively. As has already been seen for lithium, mining and processing of these critical minerals will need to increase rapidly to support the energy transition, not only for EVs but more broadly to keep up with the pace of demand for clean energy technologies. Reducing the need for critical materials will also be important for supply chain sustainability, resilience and security. Accelerating innovation can help, such as through advanced battery technologies requiring smaller quantities of critical minerals, as well as measures to support uptake of vehicle models with optimised battery size and the development of battery recycling.	電池需求上升同時帶動對關鍵原料的需求。自2017年起，鋰的生產量已增加180%，但2022年鋰仍出現供不應求的情況（2021年亦同樣如是）。在2022年，市場對鋰、鈷和鎳的需求分別有60%、30%和10%都用於生產電動車電池。而在5年前，該比例則是15%、10%和2%。從鋰的供需情況可見，我們需要加快開採和處理這些關鍵原料的速度，以支持能源轉型，在一方面配合電動車的生產，在另一方面跟上對潔淨能源需求上升的步伐。降低對關鍵原料的需求同樣有助確保供應鏈的可持續性、韌性和安全性。此外，加快創新也同樣能起作用，例如透過開發先進的電池技術，減少對關鍵原料的需求，採取措施支持採用優化電池尺寸的電動車型號和發展電池回收利用技術。
