The secondary batteries market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $144.77 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. The projected growth in the upcoming period can be ascribed to the rising demand for electric vehicles, a surge in the use of secondary batteries in portable electronic devices, and escalating investments in lithium-ion batteries. Noteworthy trends in the forecast period encompass the production of sand-based batteries, graphene-based batteries, increased investments in automation and robotic technologies within the manufacturing process, the incorporation of AI and machine learning techniques, as well as the manufacturing and development of lightweight structural batteries for exceptionally light electric bikes and consumer electronics.

The secondary batteries market is anticipated to experience a positive impact from the increasing demand for electric vehicles. These batteries are finding growing applications in hybrid vehicles, particularly Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries due to their favorable features, including a wide temperature range (-30°C to +75°C) and rapid charging capacity. NiMH batteries can efficiently handle the high-power levels crucial for electric vehicles. As indicated by a report from Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF), global electric vehicle sales are projected to reach 540 million by 2040, constituting approximately 32% of the world's passenger vehicles. Hence, the surge in demand for electric vehicles is poised to propel the growth of the secondary batteries market.

An escalating emphasis on renewable energy sources is expected to drive the expansion of the secondary battery market in the future. Renewable energy, derived from natural sources such as sunlight and wind, relies on efficient energy storage methods, with secondary batteries playing a crucial role. By offering reliable and cost-effective energy storage solutions, secondary batteries contribute to the increased adoption of renewable energy, thereby reducing dependence on fossil fuels. As per the International Energy Agency's 2021 report, renewable electricity generation is anticipated to grow by over 8%, reaching 8,300 Terawatt hours. Therefore, the growing focus on renewable energy sources is likely to foster the growth of the secondary battery market.

Recent advancements in NiMH battery manufacturing have led to enhancements in the longevity of nickel-metal hydride batteries. The inherent electro-positivity of A-elements, prone to corrosion in the alkaline electrolyte of NiMH batteries, has prompted the development of innovative solutions. One notable approach involves applying a thin protective layer to alloy particles, which serves to enhance the reaction kinetics and corrosion stability of conventional NiMH batteries. For instance, researchers at Stockholm University, a Swedish public university, have devised metal hydride surface structures for NiMH batteries, contributing to an extended cycle life.

Key players in the secondary battery market are strategically focusing on the development of batteries with superior charge capabilities to secure a competitive advantage. Batteries endowed with higher charge capacities offer increased power for applications with high demands, ensuring reliable performance as needed.
