Metal Air-Battery Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2023-2030)
Emphasis on Metal (Zinc, Lithium, Aluminum, Iron, and Others); Type (Primary and Secondary/Rechargeable); Application (Electric Vehicles, Military Electronics, Electronic Devices, Stationary Power, and Others), and Region/Country
The metal air-battery market is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of around 15.38% during the forecast period due to the growing need for better alternatives to lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries currently dominate the battery market. However, issues like high costs, safety, raw material availability, etc. have necessitated the need for alternative battery chemistries. Metal air batteries made from abundantly available metals like iron, aluminum, etc. are being seen as promising successors. For instance, aluminum air batteries developed by Phinergy and Iron air batteries by Form Energy display qualities needed to replace lithium-ion batteries. The growing need for better alternatives to lithium-ion batteries has driven the development and interest in metal-air batteries. These batteries rely on oxygen from the air as one of their reactants, allowing for higher energy densities compared to lithium-ion batteries. For instance, the significance of metal-air batteries is the partnership between IBM and Mercedes-Benz to research and develop a new generation of lithium-air batteries. These batteries could potentially offer ten times the energy density of current lithium-ion batteries, revolutionizing electric vehicles and other energy storage applications. Another instance is the work being done by researchers at the University of Illinois, who have created a prototype aluminum-air battery that promises to have significantly higher energy density and lower cost compared to lithium-ion batteries. These instances, among others, demonstrate the increasing interest and investment in metal-air batteries as a potential solution to the limitations of current energy storage technologies.
Some of the major players operating in the market include Phinergy, GP Batteries International Limited, Arotech Corporation, Duracell Inc., Renata SA, ACTXE Limited, Energizer Holdings, Inc, PolyPlus, Fuji Pigment Co., Ltd., and Zinc8 Energy Solutions Inc. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.
