Flat Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Battery Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The increase in demand for smartphones is notably driving the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market growth, although factors such as the availability of substitute products may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Flat Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Battery Market Driver
- The increase in demand for smartphones is one of the key drivers contributing to the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market growth.
- China and India are the largest countries in the smartphone industry in APAC and are registering rapid growth. For instance, the number of smartphone users in India is expected to double during 2020-2025.
- Smartphones enable consumers all over the world to not only communicate effectively but also shop, pay bills, and remotely control devices in homes and cars.
- Due to the rise in demand for smartphones, many vendors are focusing on the introduction of new products.
- For instance, in December 2021, Xiaomi Corp. announced Xiaomi 12 Pro 5G, the company's new smartphone that comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 generation 1 processor and a triple camera. Such a new introduction of smartphones will drive the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market growth during the forecast period.
Key Flat Lithium-Ion Battery Market Trend
- An increase in the recycling of Li-ion batteries is one of the key flat lithium-ion battery market trends supporting the market growth.
- Li-ion batteries are expensive to manufacture due to the high material cost and the complex production processes, which increases the need for recycling these batteries.
- The recycling process of Li-ion batteries consists of a recovery process involving a chemical precipitation methodology that allows the minerals to be recovered and delivered to battery manufacturers for reuse in the production of new batteries.
- Significantly, the recycled materials from Li-ion batteries can be reused in new batteries, reducing the production cost by around one-fourth. Such initiatives will propel the flat lithium-ion battery market growth during the forecast period.
Key Flat Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Battery Market Challenge
- The availability of substitute products is one of the challenges hampering the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market growth.
- Some of the substitutes for flat Li-ion batteries include lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, and sodium-ion batteries.
- Lead-acid batteries are considered less expensive than Li-ion batteries and are widely used in applications such as wheelchairs, hospital equipment, and others. They are preferred in these applications as the self-discharge rate of lead-acid batteries is low when compared with other types of batteries.
- Nickel-cadmium batteries are rechargeable batteries that use nickel oxide hydroxide and metallic cadmium as electrodes. They are mostly used in applications such as biomedical equipment, two-way radios, professional video cameras, and power tools, where long life and high discharge rate are important.
- Lithium is considered to be expensive and due to this manufacturers are shifting to new technologies. This has resulted in a rise in demand for sodium-ion batteries as sodium is less expensive and abundantly available when compared with lithium. Such a shift by manufacturers to new technologies will hinder the flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market growth during the forecast period.
This flat lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth.
