Due to their shock and over–charge resistant properties, lead acid batteries are considered more trustworthy. Sealing techniques used in lead acid batteries guarantee that the batteries are leak-proof. Furthermore, these batteries have more lifespan than other batteries types. Due to this functional advantage, lead acid batteries have become one of the most desired battery types globally. With rising advancements in battery technologies, the average lifespan of a battery ranges from 3-5 years. These batteries have to be replaced at regular intervals for smooth operation in vehicles. As compared to other recent batteries like Li-ion and Ni-MH, lead acid battery is relatively cheaper.
Numerous applications of lead acid batteries to support additional functions in various vehicle fragments such as LCVs (light commercial vehicles) and passenger cars, apart from ignition (SLI) and basic starting lighting are bolstering their demand in the market.
Augmenting Vehicle Electrification to Boost Demand for Automotive Lead Acid Battery
Owing to the growing demand for electric and hybrid vehicles, especially in Western Europe and North America, alternate batteries such as AGM and EFB are favored due to their better functionality and performance. Rising electrification and modification, particularly for micro-hybrid and electric vehicles, are leading to growing inclination towards AGM and EFB batteries. High cold cranking ampere (CCA) benefits of AGM batteries higher starting power.
Pricing Volatility Affecting Profit Margins of Automotive Lead Acid Battery Manufacturers
According to FMI analysis, variations in the cost of raw materials, specifically of lead, have affected the pricing of the product. This has affected the revenue, as the margins decrease with increasing prices of the raw material. Owing to these variations in cost of lead, lead acid battery prices are estimated to fluctuate during the forecast period. The variation in price is due to lack of adequate mine production.
Competition from substitute products, which are used for batteries such as (Ni-MH) nickel metal hydride, lithium-ion (Li-ion), and zinc-air. Li-ion batteries are suitable for applications in electric and hybrid vehicles, hindering the demand for lead acid batteries. Moreover, lead acid batteries have relatively limited application, bigger battery size, and lower energy density in motive powered vehicles.
