Lithium-Air Batteries Market: Industry Prospective

The global lithium-air batteries market is projected to grow with a high CAGR of 10% during the forecast period. The report analyzes the lithium-air battery market’s drivers, challenges, and impact on demand during the forecast period. Additionally, the report will help navigate and grab emerging opportunities in the lithium-air batteries market.

Lithium-Air Batteries Market: Overview

Lithium-air battery refers to the electrochemical storage that makes use of the lithium oxidation conducted at the anode in order to lower the oxygen extracted from the surrounding environment at the cathode. These batteries are much preferred among end-users as it uses the surrounding air for their functioning, thereby saving the volume and weight of the battery, which further results in a high capacity of energy as compared to the lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion batteries are referred to as LABs. These batteries hold a high potential for efficient energy storage. Additionally, it also helps address future environmental and energy challenges. The automotive sector is one of the primary end-users of lithium-air batteries.

Lithium air batteries with their exceedingly high theoretical specific energy have become a core of research and development on future battery technologies. A lithium air battery has a high energy density with 90% efficiency and can be recharged 2000 times more than lithium ion batteries. Lithium air batteries could hold more than four times the energy per kilogram of lithium-ion batteries. To induce a current, lithium air battery recycles reduction of oxygen at the cathode and oxidation of lithium at the anode. In the process, to store charge the air changes state from gaseous to solid as it binds with lithium and then converts back from solid to gaseous as the charge is drained. At the time of low current discharge, lithium air batteries function as a high capacity battery while at the time of large current discharge, lithium batteries function as a high power battery.

COVID-19 Impact:

The outbreak of Covid-19 has significantly impacted the global economy. As a result, the global lithium-air batteries market witnessed a steep drop in demand for raw materials and products. Every sector, including automobile, electronics, and energy storage, witnessed challenges in research, production, shipment, and development activities owing to the global lockdowns. China is considered a hub of lithium-ion battery manufacturing, BYD, and CATL goods. The outbreak of the pandemic caused a severe disturbance in production capabilities and supply activities. The original equipment manufacturers suffered a shortage in the supply of raw materials and batteries as a majority of the raw materials were exported from China. But owing to the ease in rules and regulations associated with Covid-19 along with the downtrend of Covid cases globally, the market is likely to see strong growth prospects in the forthcoming years. Market leaders are taking several initiatives to develop the global lithium-air batteries market and induce speedy recovery during the forecast period.
