Insights on the Sodium-Ion Batteries Global Market to 2031 - Growing Demand for Budget Electric Cars Presents Opportunities
DUBLIN, Oct. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Sodium-Ion Batteries Market - A Global and Regional Analysis: Focus on Technology, Application, and Region - Analysis and Forecast, 2022-2031" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global sodium-ion batteries market is projected to reach $4,368.0 million by 2031 from $528.0 million in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 25.91% during the forecast period 2022-2031.
The sodium-ion batteries market is expected to grow at a healthy growth rate because of the inherent benefits of sodium-ion batteries, the fast installation of intermittent energy sources such as wind and solar, as well as the growing acceptance of low-speed electric vehicles such as e-bikes and e-rickshaws. According to the National Institution for Transforming India, demand for grid storage batteries in India is expected to rise to 260-gigawatt hours (GWh) by 2030.
India aims to generate 50% of its energy needs from renewable sources by 2030, resulting in a substantial demand for storage batteries. Furthermore, the International Energy Agency (IEA) anticipates that solar photovoltaic (PV), wind, and hydro are expected to generate roughly 80% of the world's electricity by 2050. Since sodium-ion batteries are a significant energy storage technology with additional advantages, the growing solar and wind energy industries are expected to create considerable opportunities for the sodium-ion batteries market.
Market Lifecycle Stage
Sodium-ion batteries are a type of energy storage technology in which electrochemical cells with positive and negative electrodes are used. With operable temperatures ranging from -30C to 60C, sodium-ion batteries have higher operating safety than lithium-ion batteries, resulting in greater thermal durability than other battery chemistries. Furthermore, sodium-ion batteries can be discharged to zero volts to prevent accidents while in transit, lowering shipping expenses.
Sodium battery technologies have gained market traction and may be competitive with lithium-ion batteries in the coming years. However, in most countries, the commercialization and supply chain for sodium-ion batteries is still in the early stages. Most sodium-ion batteries are prototypes or in research and development (R&D); thus, the current market is dominated by other batteries such as lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries. With additional players entering the ecosystem in the coming years, the sodium-ion batteries industry is expected to expand significantly.
Increased research and development efforts are being undertaken to improve the energy density of sodium-ion batteries and develop new electrolyte technologies, which are growing in response to rising public concern and government restrictions associated with a spike in lithium-ion price and emissions. For instance, in August 2022, Scientists in Japan developed sodium-ion batteries utilizing carbon micro lattices produced with a low-cost three-dimensional (3D) printer. In addition to reducing the size of the battery and lowering production costs, the resultant anode allows for rapid transit of energy-generating ions.
Impact
With an increased worldwide focus on limited availability and high mining costs of lithium and lithium-based component, the shift to sustainable and cost-effective technologies brings significant sales and financing opportunities for sodium-ion batteries. This shift was prominently experienced in regions such as North America, Europe, and some Asian countries.
Impact of COVID-19
The global lockdown due to the COVID-19 epidemic resulted in disruptions in manufacturing activity, supply chain, and production halts, which negatively impacted the sodium-ion batteries market in 2020. Furthermore, various end-use sectors such as automotive, industrial, and others shut down their operations, resulting in lower demand for batteries in 2020. The major sodium ion battery manufacturers' sales reactions during the pandemic were inconsistent.
In addition, COVID-19 had a significant impact on the renewable energy industry all over the world, and as a result, the growth of renewable technology decreased in 2020. The pandemic posed significant risks to the solar energy sector because of a decline in economic activity. This drop also affected the market for sodium-ion batteries, which are primarily used in the solar energy sector as large-scale stationary storage systems.
