The Battery Materials Report includes the segmentation of Regions
The APAC region is predicted to experience the highest expansion during the foreseen period. The expansion of this market is driven by a strong call for lithium-ion batteries in APAC countries. A strong call for batteries from the automotive sector due to escalated use of electric vehicles and industrial sectors driven by use in telecommunications, railways, energy, and other industrial applications is driving the market for battery materials in the APAC region. The resource-rich North American market is very favorable for manufacturers to establish their base. Mineral and metal reserves in the United States amount to $ 6.2 trillion, which are employed in consumer electronics, automobiles, solar components, and other applications. The European market is predicted to see the strong call for lithium-ion storage batteries for luxury cars.
The industry in the region is characterized by intense competition between the main market players. Much of the raw material for batteries is sourced in the South American region, while a large number of transformers and assemblers are located in the Asia Pacific and North America. Metals processed in China are exported to North America for use in automotive applications. The North American market is predicted to register a significant CAGR during the foreseen period. North America is the primary center for the design and maturation of high-quality consumer electronics technologies and is therefore predicted to be a primary expansion avenue for the battery materials market. The automotive industry in the United States is also predicted to provide a stable income stream for the growing product market, as the call for electric vehicles will increase in the country.
The battery industry has grown at a high pace in the past two decades, supported by the escalating power call of modern portable customer electronics, electric vehicles, and the escalating adoption of intermittent renewable power generation. With the rise of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a sharp pullback in economic activity owing to compulsory lockdowns and other containment measures. According to the IMF World Economic Outlook published in June 2020, the world economy is set to post a -4.9% GDP growth rate in 2020.
