Global Battery Systems for Electric Vehicle Market

Electrification is the most viable way to increase the efficiency of transportation through cleaner means that is critical to the sustainable development of the entire world.The battery management system is an essential component of electric and hybrid electric vehicles. Battery Electric Vehicles do not require the use of an ICE and are powered by the electricity stored in the on-board battery. The on-board battery can be categorized in the following three types: lead-acid, nickel metal hydride and lithium-ion. The rechargeable battery packs store the chemical energy in battery electric vehicles to propel the electric motors and motor controllers. The functions of a battery system include state monitoring, safety and reliability of battery, charge control, cell balancing and evaluation. Today, since Electric Vehicles can reduce consumption of gasoline up to 75%, batteries have regained attention in the Vehicle Market.

Market Dynamics

The Global Battery Systems for Electric Vehicles market is expected to grow at an astonishing CAGR of 41.95% to reach US $14 Billion at the end of forecast period. Most of the countries worldwide have been informed to control the emission levels amidst growing climatic concerns. This will have a tremendous positive impact for the demand of electric vehicles. Factors such as Government subsidies and incentives are further motivating manufacturers to enter this segment as well buyers for purchasing Electric Vehicles. The increased demand for optimal and efficient work cycle of rechargeable batteries has led to high number of applications of high-power density Li-ion batteries. However, there are certain factors creating restraints for the market growth. The range and performance of battery is one of the major causes of concerns. Less power makes them more suitable for short distance travels. Longer charge durations and lack of availability of supercharge stations adds to the pains of using the battery vehicles. High cost also poses a threat to the growth of market.
