Asia-Pacific Region Leads the Way
The report projected that the Asia-Pacific market would experience the highest CAGR increase, at around 15.1%, in terms of revenue between 2021 and the end of the decade.
The research attributed the region’s market performance in 2020 to industrial battery material reserves in countries such as India, Australia, and China. The report also identified government mandates that promote green energy use in Asia-Pacific as contributors to the industry’s growth.
High Prices for Lithium-Ion Batteries Could Limit Growth
Lithium-ion batteries held the greatest market share in 2020, but the report anticipates that their price, compared to traditional battery systems, will limit industrial battery sales during the forecast period.
The coronavirus pandemic brought a slowdown in industrial battery production, due to the unavailability of labor and shortage of raw materials, which hindered the growth of industrial batteries.
