The research studied the historical data considered for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the secondary battery market.
Key Secondary Battery Market Driver
The decline in lithium-ion battery costs is notably driving the secondary battery market growth. Lithium-ion batteries offer several advantages, such as higher current density, longer power-holding capacity, and longer shelf life than other battery chemistries. Such benefits make them preferred among end-users. Other than the best performance, the cost is a vital factor that differentiates lithium-ion batteries from other battery technologies. Lithium-ion batteries are comparatively costlier than lead-acid batteries and NiMH batteries. However, the manufacturing cost of lithium-ion batteries and the cost of battery packs have declined substantially in the past few years, owing to improved production scale and manufacturing efficiency of vendors. The cost of lithium-ion batteries has declined globally owing to the higher adoption of this battery technology in the automotive industry and the development of cost-effective production methods by vendors. The leading manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries are focusing on technological advances and are trying to reduce the prices of battery packs further. Lithium-ion batteries account for a major share of the cost structure of the end products in which they are used. A decline in their prices will lower the total cost of ownership of these end products and will make these batteries more competitive than alternative battery technologies, such as lead-acid batteries and NiMH batteries. The prices of lithium-ion batteries are expected to decline further in the coming years as the production capacity of vendors is continuously rising owing to the strong demand for EVs. Such reduction in cost, coupled with the overall performance of lithium-ion batteries, will increase the sales of these batteries, which will tend to drive the growth of the global secondary battery market during the forecast period.
Key Secondary Battery Market Trend
The development of advanced lead-acid batteries is the primary trend driving the secondary battery market growth. The tremendous advantage of lead-acid batteries over other different battery and energy storage technologies is their cost, as lead-based batteries cost much less than lithium-ion batteries and NiMH batteries. Advanced lead-acid batteries are an upgrade over ordinary lead-acid batteries as they offer the most desirable overall performance and eliminate the drawbacks of common lead-acid batteries, such as a decline in the performance of the battery due to sulfation. Advanced lead-acid batteries employ several technologies, of which the most prominent ones are EFBs, AGM batteries, and lead-carbon batteries. Advanced lead acid batteries are majorly used for both on-grid and off-grid energy storage to provide a continuous electricity supply. In automobiles, advanced lead-acid batteries are used primarily in start/stop applications in micro-hybrid vehicles and EVs. The increasing need for industrial batteries and energy storage applications in electrical grids, off-grid, and microgrids is driving the demand for advanced lead-acid batteries. In the industrial sector, different types of material handling equipment utilize advanced lead-acid battery storage systems. Lead-acid battery manufacturers are focusing on developing advanced lead-acid batteries to retain their market share in the global secondary battery market and to compete with lithium-ion battery manufacturers. For this, several vendors are increasingly collaborating among themselves and investing in the R&D of advanced lead-acid batteries. For instance, in March 2022, Exide Industries entered into a long-year technical collaboration agreement with Chinese lithium-ion battery maker SVOLT Energy Technology Co. Ltd to set up a GW scale li-ion cell manufacturing facility. Such collaborations will result in improved performance and demand for advanced lead-acid batteries, which will drive the growth of the global secondary battery market during the forecast period.
Key Secondary Battery Market Challenge
Drawbacks of lead-acid batteries are the major challenge impeding the secondary battery market growth. Lead-acid batteries are widely used across the globe. Lead-acid batteries hold a cost advantage over other battery technologies and, as a result, are preferred in a number of applications. However, they are heavier and less durable than substitute batteries, such as lithium-ion or nickel batteries. The life expectancy of lead-acid batteries under continuous charge depends on multiple factors, such as charging frequency, charging voltage, and depth of discharge, as high temperatures reduce the lifespan of these batteries. Compared with lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries have lower strength density and lose the ability to accept a charge when discharged for too long due to sulfation (formation of lead sulfate crystals in the pores and the floor of the lead plates of batteries). The growth of the automotive and other related industries has increased the demand for lead-acid batteries, which are used as a power source. Moreover, owing to the low availability of substitutes at the same cost, many industries continue to use lead-acid batteries. However, lead-acid batteries contain high levels of toxic lead oxide, a hazardous material that poses risks to the environment and human health. Therefore, the increased production of these batteries has resulted in the emissions of lead, which are often mixed with discharge fumes from manufacturing plants, causing air pollution and health issues in people. An increase in lead emissions in the air due to the incorrect disposal of lead is limiting the use of lead in batteries. Several lead-acid battery manufacturers have been ordered to close their plants due to issues over lead poisoning/pollution. Exide Technologies had to permanently close its lead-acid battery recycling plant in California, US, because of lead contamination. China, one of the largest manufacturers of lead-acid batteries globally, was compelled to shut down many of its lead-acid battery manufacturing plants way back in 2011, following which it enforced stringent regulations and standards for lead-acid battery production and disposal. Thus, the disadvantages of lead-acid batteries will restrict their demand and use across the globe. This, in turn, will hamper the growth of the global secondary battery market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact and Recovery Analysis
The global secondary battery market in APAC has witnessed certain challenges since early 2020, owing to the COVID-19 outbreak. The outbreak of COVID-19 affected many nations in the region, such as China, India, South Korea, and Japan. In 2020, many countries imposed stringent nationwide lockdowns to prevent the community spread of COVID-19. The outbreak affected the universal economic systems in the region, as well as supply chains and industrial sectors in 2020 and early 2021. The rapid rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in APAC hampered supply chains and related activities and, subsequently, the demand for secondary batteries in the region until early 2021. However, the lifting of travel restrictions, the resumption of operations in the manufacturing sector, and the initiation of large-scale COVID-19 vaccination drives conducted in many countries have driven the growth of the regional market from the second half of 2021, which will continue to grow during the forecast period.
