S&P Global projects that lithium carbonate prices will stabilize near current levels in a range between $20,000/mt and $25,000/mt from 2024 to 2027.
Many battery makers also postponed their purchases. This contributed to a 1.6% price drop for lithium carbonate in China, bringing it down to 76,100 yuan per metric ton by mid-February. Additionally, the shift to lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries —which require less lithium than traditional nickel-based batteries—is reducing lithium demand.
In the past year, the global lithium market has been characterized by a significant shift in dynamics, with prices falling precipitously. Despite spot prices reaching over $80,000 per ton in December 2022, they sit at just over $13,000 per ton as of Jan. 30, a decline of over 80%.
Lithium and cobalt, essential for electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage, have been experiencing major price changes in the past few years. Lithium carbonate prices rose from US$ 5,180 per tonne in 2010 to US$ 68,100 in 2022, before dropping to US$ 10,542 in 2025. This gradual decline began in 2023.
Published on April 30, 2025 by Shakun Singh The lithium market has experienced significant price volatility in the recent past because of fluctuations in supply and demand.
The prolonged decline in lithium prices has led to significant industry reactions. The industry is responding to the ongoing slump with various strategies aimed at stabilizing the market. Big producers like Albemarle and SQM plan to cut back production. This move aims to stop further price drops.
