The North America region is the dominant player in the global graphite market. The region is expected to account for 35.6% of the market share in 2024. The region's large share can be attributed to the presence of well-established end-use industries, such as steelmaking, refractory, and automotive, coupled with increasing demand for graphite-based products. The U.S. is the major contributor to the North American graphite market, driven by the growing electric vehicle (EV) industry and rising investments in renewable energy projects that utilize graphite-based components. Additionally, the increased use of graphite in lithium-ion battery production for consumer electronics and energy storage systems has fueled the regional market growth.

The Asia Pacific region is the fastest growing market for graphite, driven by rapid industrialization and urbanization in countries like China, India, and Japan. China is the global leader in both natural and synthetic graphite production, accounting for over 70% of the world's graphite supply. The surging demand for graphite in the Asia Pacific region can be attributed to the expansion of the steel, refractory, and electronics industries, as well as the growing adoption of electric vehicles. India, in particular, has seen a significant increase in graphite consumption due to the government's push for renewable energy and the country's ambitious plans to transition to electric mobility.
