Overview of the global lead-acid battery aftermarket
As per the Technavio’s market research report, the global lead-acid battery aftermarket is expected to grow moderately and post a CAGR of more than 14% during the forecast period. The growing number of investments in green telecom will drive the growth prospects for the global lead-acid battery aftermarket until the end of 2021. Companies such as Eaton are taking efforts to integrate clean fuel-cell backup power solutions and generator start-up optimization software and integrate smart grids with their existing product portfolio to reduce the carbon footprint. The growing demand for providing green energy in the telecom sector is encouraging more investments and funding for research and developmental activities on batteries. As a result, the telecom power system manufacturers are expanding their product portfolio with green telecom power systems, which, in turn, will create the demand for lead-acid batteries.
The rise in adoption of renewable hybrid power systems in telecom towers will drive the growth prospects for the global lead-acid battery aftermarket during the projected period. The growing adoption rate of renewable hybrid power systems to solve the problem of electricity imbalances in remote locations will boost the demand for battery energy storage, which will further drive the market’s growth.
Competitive landscape and key vendors
The global lead-acid battery aftermarket is highly competitive and appears to be fragmented due to the presence of many global and regional vendors.
