Next-Generation Batteries Beyond Li-ion Will Be Worth $10 Billion in 2030
Li-ion Will Retain Its Dominance for the Next Decade, But the Time Is Ripe for Investment in Rising Contenders Like Lithium-Sulfur and Solid-State, Says Lux Research
(firmenpresse) - BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 12/01/15 -- Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries have led to revolutions in consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and grid storage, but still face limitations in cost and performance. While incremental improvements will extend their dominance into the next decade, a new generation of battery technologies are rising and will be worth $10 billion by 2030, according to .
"Next-generation battery developers are pursuing technology improvements and mass-production scale-up, though incumbent Li-ion is still improving quickly, thanks to massive investments," said Cosmin Laslau, Lux Research Senior Analyst and lead author of the report titled, "."
"Companies with an important stake in the battery market should invest in next-generation batteries as well as advances in Li-ion, to make sure they maintain a strong position as the technology mix shifts," he added.
Lux Research analysts created an adoption roadmap for next-generation batteries, quantifying the market for each technology, and ranking emerging battery developers on the proprietary Lux Innovation Grid. Among their findings:
Next-generation batteries will see explosive growth after 2030: Lithium-sulfur will jump from $6 billion in 2030 to $29 billion in 2035, while solid-state batteries will climb from $3 billion to $42 billion over the same period.
Solid-state batteries will earn $12 billion from electronics in 2035, enjoying a 39% market share. Lithium-sulfur, meanwhile, will see no significant adoption in electronics, due to energy density issues, ceding ground to advanced Li-ion.
Imprint Energy, which makes thin-film batteries for electronics, and rapid materials developer Ilika are the Dominant solid-state companies on the Lux Innovation Grid. The lithium-sulfur landscape is sparser, with Oxis Energy and Boulder Ionics earning positive takes from Lux.
The report, titled "The Next-Generation Battery Roadmap: Quantifying How Solid-State, Lithium-Sulfur, and Other Batteries Will Emerge After 2020," is part of the Lux Research service.
