Drivers

Increasing Research and Development on Battery Improvements

• Companies conduct research and development to produce more durable and safer batteries. As the world moves towards cleaner energy adoption, R&D programs by battery manufacturers to develop battery chemistries have increased exponentially e.g., leading manufacturers such as Amprius Inc. (US) and Nexeon Corporation (UK) are developing silicon anode batteries with enhanced features These advanced silicon anode batteries are expected to be adopted in various industries and industries in the coming years.

Advances in Smart Electronics are Increasing

• The rise in electricity and connectivity worldwide has led to increased reliance on technology. Lithium-ion batteries are used in various appliances, including garden tools, handling equipment, consumer electronics, and uninterruptible power systems. Lithium-ion batteries have energy consumption well and can be sized to fit any device. IoT has gained popularity and empowers smart devices. IoT devices include smart watches, fitness trackers and smart speakers. These devices need long-lasting batteries; Therefore, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in these smart devices. These smart devices have a long life and therefore need rechargeable batteries.

Restraints

Growing Concern about the Storage and Portability of Defective Batteries

• Spoiled batteries contain dangerous chemicals such as acids and heavy metals—mercury and lead. The Environmental Protection Agency reports that lithium metal or lithium-ion batteries caused 254 fires in 64 water plants and that spent batteries should be stored in watertight containers away from other flammable materials. It’s also important to keep a Class D fire extinguisher and sand nearby as a precaution in case of fire.

High Cost of Battery Powered Industrial Vehicles

• The cost of installing high performance and efficient battery mining vehicles, material handling equipment, AGVs and forklifts is high Industrial vehicles need energy efficiency and enable them to operate at any time and for long periods of time. The high cost of installation is one of the major factors preventing manufacturers from entering the cost-effective market.
