Title: Global Battery Market: Regional & Strategic Developments
1Global Battery Market Regional Strategic
Developments By Shruti Vanjare The increasing
popularity of consumer electronics, including
smartphones, tablets, and LCDs, on a global
scale, is mainly accredited to the rise in
internet penetration and the growing disposable
income. In this regard, according to statistics,
the total revenue of the global consumer
electronics market is likely to reach 1135.72
billion by 2026, from 1085.8 billion in 2021.
Subsequently, this factor is set to fuel the need
for high-capacity batteries, such as lithium-ion,
thus augmenting the battery market,
globally. According to Inkwood Researchs
estimations, the global battery market is
expected to grow with a CAGR of 16.68 during the
forecast period of 2022 to 2030. The markets
notable growth is attributed to the incentives
for electric vehicle manufacturing as well as the
declining prices of batteries. For instance,
according to industry data, the prices of
batteries have depreciated by approximately 97
since 1991. Hence, the reduction in battery
prices is expected to bolster its demand and
adoption across various industries, thus
promoting market growth over the upcoming years.
Regional Trends to Strengthen Global Markets
Growth Trajectory Significant investments by key
players in battery technologies across the globe
are expected to have a positive impact on the
market growth during the forecast period. For
instance, in 2022, the United Kingdom start-up,
Britishvolt, gained new investments worth 50.17
million from Glencore for constructing a
large-scale battery factory in the country.
Consequently, this factor is integral to the
markets growth in Europe.
2- On the other hand, while North America remains
one of the largest consumers of different types
of batteries, the surging adoption of electric
vehicles in the Asia-Pacific further contributes
to the global markets growth. - Asia-Pacific to Lead the Market with a 17.68
CAGR - The increasing demand for electric vehicles is a
major driving factor facilitating the growth of
the Asia-Pacific battery market during the
forecast years. In this regard, China leads the
global sales of electric vehicles, with about 2.9
million battery electric vehicles sold in the
country in 2021. Besides, this figure also
denotes a substantial increase of 162 compared
to 2020. - The growth of the automotive industry, especially
in developing nations such as India and Japan,
further contributes to the adoption of electric
vehicles in the region. Since a wide range of
batteries is utilized in hybrid electric vehicles
as well as electric vehicles, automotive
batteries is set to be the fastest-growing
application during the forecast period. - Moreover, Barrel Energy signed a memorandum of
understanding with Roshan Energy Technologies for
developing and manufacturing lithium-ion
batteries in India. Hence, such joint ventures
and collaborations play an essential role in
positioning lithium-ion battery, under the
technology category, as the fastest-growing and
dominating segment. - North America to Dominate the Market by 2030
- North America continues to remain one of the
largest consumers of various types of batteries,
acquiring a revenue share of 91.26 in 2021.
Moreover, the integration of renewables with
energy storage is set to present lucrative growth
opportunities for the North America battery
market over the upcoming forecast years. - In this regard, the United States, capturing the
highest revenue share in North America, has
undertaken considerable measures and investments
to boost the production of advanced batteries.
For instance, the United States Department of
Energy issued notices of intent to provide an
amount worth 2.91 billion for the expansion of
energy industries, including energy storage and
electric vehicles. - Likewise, in 2021, the government of the United
States announced to offer funding worth - 209 million for 26 new laboratory research
projects pertaining to electric vehicle
batteries. The government is establishing efforts
to boost the domestic supply chain of lithium
batteries, as well. - In Conclusion Key Players Efforts to Counter
Limitations
performance battery technologies.
3- Aligning with this, Saint-Gobain announced its
plan to partner with Addionics, an Israeli
battery technology start-up, to develop next
generation solid-state lithium-ion batteries
integrated with novel electrode components. The
partnership aimed to deliver significant
improvements in electric vehicle battery
performance. These include a longer driving
range, fast charging, enhanced safety, and lower
production costs, thereby providing the global
battery market with notable growth opportunities. - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
