The lithium-ion battery market is primarily driven by improving efficiency of battery and increasing application in EVs and HEVs and energy, medical and military. In addition, stringent government regulations related to carbon emissions in regions such as Europe, North America and China is supporting its growth. At the same time, higher life cycle as compared to lead nickel, nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride batteries is expected to increase L-I demand in the coming years. High price as compared to other batteries and the risk of overheating are the factors inhibiting lithium-ion battery growth globally. However, the price is coming down and will have a positive impact on the market in the coming years.
Among different application sectors, the consumer sector is the largest followed by automotive in 2012, and is expected to maintain its position throughout the estimated period. Growing adoption of these batteries in consumer electronic products such as digital cameras, cellphones and tablet PCs is expected to fuel its growth in the estimated period. Energy, medical and military sectors are the emerging sectors for lithium-ion battery offering huge potential in the coming years.
