8McKinsey: Global Li-ion battery demand to surge 6.8x by 2035 - Rs. 1 billion required per 10 GWh; Western supply chain needs incentive reform
 A McKinsey & Company report from April 2026 projects global lithium-ion battery demand to explode from 1.0 TWh in 2024 to 4.2 TWh by 2030 and 6.8 TWh by 2035 - yet 75% of global supply remains concentrated in China. The Automotive & Assembly Practice study, co-authored by Raphael Rettig and Wenting Gao, estimates that approximately Rs. 1 billion is needed per 10 GWh of new capacity, with 4–5 year construction lead times creating investment risk. Lithium and nickel prices have fluctuated 3–6 times in recent years, and the report calls for structured incentive pricing mechanisms to de-risk Western battery supply chain investments.
