Cobalt
is a metal found in the earth’s crust. It is usually found in the
form of compounds and is rarely encountered as a free element. It
usage in human enterprises is also mostly done as a compound rather
than a free element. The global cobalt market is experiencing rise in
demand in recent years owing to growing demand for rechargeable
batteries, in which cobalt is an important component.
The
report on the global market analyzes the several applications of
cobalt in the global perspective and presents historical data and
growth forecasts regarding each market segment. Market attractiveness
analysis presents information about which market segments have strong
growth prospects and in which regions. Porter’s five forces
analysis regarding the applications of cobalt elucidates the
competitive rivalry in the market, the buyer and seller’s
bargaining power, and threat from substitutes and new entrants into
the market.
Growth
drivers and restraints acting upon the global cobalt market are also
put under the microscope to better understand the dynamics of the
growth trajectory of the global cobalt market in the forecast period.
Major trends emerging in the market and expected to influence the
market’s growth path are examined and their importance evaluated.
Overview
of the global cobalt market
Cobalt
finds application in several sectors in the form of compounds. Prime
application segments of the global cobalt market are reusable energy
storage systems, super alloys, wear-resistant alloys, thermal spray
coatings, magnets, orthopedics, binder materials, and life sciences.
Of these, the application of cobalt in reusable energy storage
systems has the highest market share and is expected to retain its
dominance over the market in the forecast period.
The
shifting dynamics of the global automotive industry, where
lightweight electric cars are seen as the perfect solution to climate
change issues created by cars, are responsible for the growing demand
from the cobalt market in the manufacture of rechargeable batteries.
The growing aviation industry is also helping the cobalt market, due
to the usage of cobalt alloys in airplane engines.
The
major restraint acting upon the global cobalt market is inconsistency
in supply created by the political instability and lack of advanced
infrastructure in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, one of the
leading cobalt exporters in the world. The supply-demand gap created
as a result is capable of ratcheting up cobalt prices in the global
market, harming the value chain of the global cobalt industry. Other
producers around the world are Canada, China, Zambia, and Australia.
According
to geographical segmentation, China and the U.S. are the leading
national markets for cobalt, due to the rise in the automotive and
aviation industries in these two countries. Due to the prominence of
these two markets, the cobalt markets in Asia Pacific and North
America are the leading regional segments of the global cobalt
market.
