Increasing adoption of silicon anode battery in wearable electronics to drives the global silicon anode battery market

The global silicon anode battery market was valued at USD 96.5 million in 2015 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 43.4% between 2016 and 2022. The base year used for this study is 2015 and the forecast period is 2016 to 2022.

Silicon anode batteries are most suited for use in consumer electronics, healthcare, and industrial applications, owing to their high energy capacity and compact design. Various new products with improved features have been launched in the wearable electronics market. Thin film silicon anode batteries are used in these devices to make them flexible and lightweight. Companies such as Planar Energy Devices, Inc. (U.S.) and Cymbet Corporation (U.S.), among others, are also working towards the development of advanced products such as thin-film silicon anode batteries.

The silicon anode battery market report covers the market on the basis of capacity, type, application, and geography. In terms of capacity, 1,500 to 2,500 mAh was the largest segment of the market in 2015. The increasing need for advanced battery technology that overcomes the drawbacks of conventional batteries in electric vehicle applications is one of the major drivers for the growth of the silicon anode battery market. Besides this, silicon anode batteries have the capability to power devices that are compact, have limited internal space, and enable efficient working.

The pouch cell segment is expected to account for the largest share of the silicon anode battery market by 2022

On the basis of type, the pouch cell segment is expected to grow at a highest CAGR during the forecast period, as compared to cylindrical and prismatic cell.  The growth of pouch cell market is propelled by rapidly growing popularity in applications such as consumer electronics, packing, smart cards, wearable devices, and medical devices among others which require high-energy power source to be integrated within the limited space.

The battery capacity from 1500 mAh – 2500 mAh is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The capacity ranging from 1500 mAh to 2500 mAh is expected to grow at the highest growth rate during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the fact that they can be used as thin-film batteries or as portable batteries. These batteries are used for products which require moderate to high energy to function. 1500 mAh to 2500 mAh batteries are expected to be the ideal energy sources for portable devices in the future.

APAC expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period

The implementation of silicon anode battery is increasing in APAC, and is expected to witness substantial investments by various companies to set up their silicon anode battery manufacturing base in the region. Silicon anode batteries have gained popularity among the automobile manufacturers as they offer an alternative to nickel metal batteries used in electric vehicles, due to their small size and lightweight. Thus, the increasing demand for electrical vehicle (EV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) and plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHV) would foster the adoption of silicon anode Li-ion batteries in APAC.

The ecosystem of silicon anode battery includes R&D, manufacturing, consultant, software service vendors, marketing & sales, and end users. The report provides the competitive landscape of key players, which indicates their growth strategies in terms of the silicon anode battery market. The report provides the profiles of major companies in the silicon anode battery market. Some of the key players in the global silicon anode battery market are Amprius, Inc. (U.S.), Panasonic Corp (Japan), Samsung SDI (South Korea), LG Chem (South Korea), Nexeon Limited (U.K.), Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (U.S.), Nanotek Instruments, Inc. (U.S.), Enevate Corporation (U.S.), Zeptor Corporation (U.S.), XG Sciences (U.S.), and California Lithium Battery Inc. (U.S.).
