 According to a new report by UnivDatos, The Battery-Free RFID Sensor Market is expected to reach USD Million in 2033 by growing at a CAGR of 12.3% during the forecast period (2025- 2033F). Sustainability and saving energy have become an increasing problem experienced by different industries, and the market for the Battery-free RFID Sensor has grown rapidly. With the help of these energy harvesting techniques, these sensors do not need batteries to drive their functionalities. This innovation overcomes the concerns on environmental impact related to the disposal of batteries and lowers maintenance costs. The market based on vehicles is driven by the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), the growing need for real-time data collection, and the drive towards greener technologies. Beyond this, such sensors are being progressively adopted by sectors such as logistics, healthcare, and retail to use them for applications like inventory management, patient monitoring, and supply chain optimization.

For example, in January 2023, Technology company Paragon ID expanded its footprint in real-time location systems (RTLS) through the acquisition of the business and assets of UWINLOC. This strategic move enhances Paragon ID’s capabilities in battery-free RFID solutions. The company’s newly integrated RTLS offering includes battery-free tags and sensors that are powered by nearby RFID readers. These devices can transmit location or sensor data via multiple frequency options, such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or Ultra-Wideband (UWB). Initial testing and adoption of these solutions have been observed in the aerospace sector, where companies are leveraging the technology for advanced asset tracking and monitoring applications.

Segments that transform the industry

Based on Frequency, the market is segmented into Low Frequency, High Frequency, and NFC Ultra High Frequency. Among these, the NFC Ultra High Frequency segment is leading the market. The key factor that explains the continued growth of the NFC Ultra High Frequency (UHF) segment is the need for efficient and proper communication in several applications, which include logistics, retailing, as well as supply chain. UHF-based NFC technology can work at longer distances, has higher data transfer rates, and has fewer performance issues in the presence of multiple tags than other types of RFID technology; the most common use of this technology is in inventory tracking, management of assets, and cashless payments. Besides, the increased demand for automation and the Internet of Things in industries has promoted the utilization of the UHF NFC solutions since they offer connection, real-time data, and compatibility with other smart systems. It was seen that this improved operational efficiency and the consequent decrease in costs have become the major factors for the development of the NFC UHF market.
