American Bullion releases analysis on surging industrial silver demand driven by solar energy, electric vehicles, and technology sectors.
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, January 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — American Bullion today released its analysis of the silver market’s structural transformation, highlighting how record industrial consumption has created a supply-demand imbalance that presents significant opportunities for investors.
According to data compiled by American Bullion’s research team, industrial silver demand in 2025 exceeded 700 million ounces—a figure representing more than 60% of total annual mine production. The solar photovoltaic industry alone consumed approximately 200 million ounces, with electric vehicle production and 5G infrastructure deployment driving additional demand growth.
“Silver occupies a unique position as both a precious metal and an essential industrial commodity,” said Nevtan Akcora, President of American Bullion. “Unlike gold, which serves primarily as a store of value, silver’s dual nature means that economic growth and green energy transition directly impact its consumption fundamentals.”
The analysis highlights several factors supporting silver’s investment thesis:
Supply Constraints:
Primary silver mine production has declined 4% annually since 2022
Recycling rates have not offset the deficit
New mine development requires 7-10 years from discovery to production
Demand Accelerators:
Solar panel silver content requirements are increasing with next-generation cell technology
– EV production targets from major automakers imply 150% increase in automotive silver demand by 2030
– AI data center expansion drives silver consumption in electronics and thermal applications
Valuation Metrics:
The gold-to-silver ratio of 60:1 remains elevated versus the historical average of 47:1
Silver’s 144% gain in 2025 still trails gold’s cumulative five-year performance
American Bullion offers investors the ability to acquire physical silver through direct purchase or within a Silver IRA structure. Consultations are available to discuss allocation strategies appropriate for individual investment objectives.
