The Needle Coke Market size was valued at USD 4.8 Billion in 2023. It is expected to grow to USD 9.7 Billion by 2032 and grow at a CAGR of 8.2% over the forecast period of 2024-2032.

Growing electric vehicle (EV) production is one of the key factors driving the growth of the needle coke market. Needle coke is an essential input for graphite anodes used in lithium-ion batteries, the mainstay of powering EVs. With electric car numbers booming around the world right now, especially in large markets like China and Europe, the need for premium needle coke should continue to rise substantially in the coming years. Government support providing subsidies and carbon emissions standards for EVs has played a role in courting this domestic EV production growth, which is now also being backed by increasing consumer acceptance of cleaner mobility solutions. To help prolong battery life and increase energy density, battery makers are on the hunt for better, longer-lasting, and high-performance anode materials. As a result, this report anticipates rising demand for high-quality needle coke, which is required to fulfill the stringent quality standards of high-performing anodes, in line with the ongoing sustainable energy transition and electric mobility growth.

In Europe, the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) reported that electric vehicles accounted for 22% of all new car sales in the EU in 2023, continuing to rise as the European Union's Green Deal and emission reduction targets push for a transition to electric mobility.

Increased utilization of renewable energy also solar and wind power boosts the need for energy storage systems which in turn will increase the growth of energy storage devices and thereby drive the demand for high-performance batteries. Such renewable energy sources are intermittent, they are producing electricity only when the sun shines or the wind blows, and are therefore requiring effective and reliable energy storage systems with enough load balance to secure a level of stable power generation. Li-ion batteries are the dominant technology for good reason, offering the world-leading properties like energy density, long cycle life, and efficiency, but we need affordable and high-quality needle coke for graphite anodes.

For example, the European Union and China with its ambitious renewable sources targets of 40% of energy based on replicas of energy from renewables by 2030 and 20% by 2025, respectively. Together with global trends pushing towards decarbonization and green energy solutions, these initiatives further highlight the energy storage need in mitigating the variation of renewable energy output.

Needle Coke Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Rising demand for needle coke in the production of graphite electrodes, drive the market growth.

Needle coke is a vital raw material component when generating graphite electrodes further along the line and thus, is an important factor driving market growth. Needle coke is used as the key raw material to produce high-quality graphite electrodes required in the electric arc furnace (EAF) process for the production of steel. With the global steel industry currently transforming towards more sustainable and energy-efficient steel production methods through the use of electric arc furnaces (EAFs), the demand for graphite electrodes has increased. Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs), which melt down scrap steel using high-temperature electrical arcs, consume high-quality electrodes made from needle coke for optimal performance and durability. The EAF steelmaking trend, especially in China (the largest steel producer worldwide), Europe, and North America is causing rising needle coke demand. Additionally, with industries demanding greener and more sustainable steel solutions, the importance of needle coke in terms of high-performance electrodes for these advanced technologies is expected to power the growth of the needle coke market as a whole.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reports that the demand for needle coke, particularly for graphite electrodes, has been steadily rising as electric arc furnaces continue to gain popularity in the steel industry. The increased focus on EAF steel production, combined with rising steel demand in emerging markets, has led to a greater need for high-quality needle coke to manufacture graphite electrodes.

Restraint

  • The high cost of high-quality needle coke may hamper the market growth.

High-quality needle coke costs too much and acts as a major restraint for the growth of the needle coke market. Needle coke, which is used in highly critical applications such as graphite electrodes for electric arc furnaces and anodes for lithium-ion batteries, requires very high-purity petroleum pitch or coal tar pitch raw materials. This type of material is more complicated and energy-intensive to create, and it requires specialized equipment, enhancing production costs. Moreover, adequate feedstock availability is another constraint, besides global crude oil price fluctuations adding to the costs. Consequently, the elevated raw material cost translates into a higher production cost in industries utilizing needle coke for steel production and in electric vehicle batteries.

Needle Coke Market Segmentation Analysis

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
