Lithium - end use share in the global market 2018
Distribution of lithium end-usage worldwide in 2018, by area of application
This statistic depicts the distribution of lithium end-use consumption in the global market in 2018, by area of application. During that year, some 23 percent of the lithium consumed was used in glass and ceramic products. Increases in battery demand will be a strong driver of lithium consumption in the near future but producers are currently limited in their ability to match demands.
