The Diamond Battery market in South Korea is gaining momentum, supported by the nation's robust semiconductor and advanced materials ecosystem. A key driver is the government’s commitment to nuclear waste reutilization, which directly aligns with the radioactive carbon-14 core technology behind diamond batteries. South Korea’s strong R&D capabilities and its push for next-generation energy storage solutions further enhance market development. However, high costs of synthetic diamond production and strict regulatory barriers concerning radioactive materials act as restraints. Nevertheless, growing interest from defense and aerospace sectors offers promising opportunities, particularly given the demand for ultra-long-lasting power sources in remote and high-risk environments. Emerging trends include public-private collaborations and academic involvement in exploring nanodiamond performance efficiency. The South Korean market is projected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 23.8% from 2025 to 2032.
