Our Graphene division produces 10,000 metric tonnes per year of purified spherical graphite. This is a key component for Lithium-Ion batteries (about 70kg of spherical graphite is used in each electric vehicle). Our plan is to expand our China production to 40,000 mt/year and license our technology in North America, Europe and Africa.
How Do We Participate In The EV Lithium-ion Battery Market
Lithium-Ion battery anodes are made from spherical graphite
We currently produce 10,000 tpa of spherical graphite; about 5% of China’s output
Roadmap to expand China capacity to 40,000 tpa over 3 yrs. NA/Europe/Africa expansion using a technical consulting and licensing model.
Spherical graphite market forecast to grow 18.6%/pa through 2027
Emerging graphene market forecast to grow 35%/pa through 2027

Gigafactories and Emerging Graphene Tech
- With the proliferation of electric vehicles forecasted to accelerate, this is expected to represent a third of the annual global production of passenger vehicles, or 35 million EV units/year, by 2030.
- To support this growth, manufacturing facilities, or gigafactories, are being commissioned across Europe and the US to produce batteries for electric vehicles on an increased scale.
- Gigafactories will consume enormous quantities of natural resources, with an EV battery typically requiring:
- 70kg of battery-grade graphite
- 60kg of Lithium and 20kg of Cobalt
- A 16 GWh plant, therefore, consumes 16,000 tons of battery graphite (or 1k ton/GW), 13,700 tons of Lithium, and 4,500 tons of cobalt per annum
- Graphex Group is forming technology joint ventures to leverage our technology and expertise to build regional battery anode material plants ( Value Addition ) supporting European and Middle Eastern Gigafactories
