In 2025, the global production of anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries reached 3.0912 million tons, with an average selling price of 3,050 USD/ton. The global annual production capacity of anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries was approximately 5.017 million tons, and the gross profit margin was about 20.16%. Anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries refer to the active materials that function as the negative electrode in lithium ion batteries, serving as the key carrier for the reversible intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions during battery charge and discharge. During charging, lithium ions are extracted from the cathode, migrate through the electrolyte to the anode, and become intercalated into the crystal structure or pores of the anode material; during discharging, lithium ions are extracted from the anode and return to the cathode, while electrons flow from the anode to the cathode through the external circuit, forming an electric current to drive external loads. The performance of anode electrode materials largely determines the battery's energy density, cycle life, charge/discharge rate, safety, and cost. The upstream industry for anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries includes petroleum coke, needle coke, and pitch coke. The midstream industry consists of the manufacturers of anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, while the downstream industries are primarily power batteries, energy storage batteries, and consumer batteries.

Currently, the market for anode electrode materials for lithium ion batteries has formed a mature landscape dominated by graphite-based materials, among which artificial graphite holds a mainstream position due to its excellent cycle life and rate capability, while natural graphite maintains its competitive advantages in cost and compaction density. Driven by the continuous demand for higher energy density in power batteries and energy storage applications, new anode technologies, particularly silicon-based materials, are accelerating their transition from research and development to industrial application, becoming a focal point of technological innovation in the market. At the same time, the industry chain exhibits a clear trend toward large-scale production and consolidation, with leading manufacturers continuously strengthening their competitive advantages through vertical integration and process optimization. Meanwhile, the diversified development of downstream application markets has imposed differentiated requirements on various performance dimensions of anode electrode materials, driving the product portfolio to continuously evolve toward specialized directions such as high capacity, long cycle life, and fast-charging capability.
