use of zinc-air batteries from miniature hearing aids to cardiac telemetry
monitors for continuous monitoring will stimulate the market value.
· In
telecommunication sector, zinc air batteries are used for communication
receivers such as e-mail devices, pagers, and other messaging tools are
leveraging profits in the zinc-air batteries market.
· The
global shift towards clean energy has instigated the demand for zinc and zinc
air battery systems. The high demand
for zinc from industries creates optimum opportunities for the key players in
the zinc-air battery market.
Zinc-Air Batteries Market Trends
· The
recent research project known as ZnMobil is funded by German Federal ministry
for Economic Affairs and Energy. The main objective behind the project is to
develop a scalable zinc-air battery for mobile applications. The zinc batteries
can be recharged mechanically and electrically (replacing electrolyte). The
growth of mechanical recharging batteries will provide several advantages such
as short charging time therefore provide great customer benefit.
· The
current technologies used in large scale storage systems are pumped system or
compressed air energy storage (CAES) requires large water reservoirs .The
project named as Powair initiated and funded under the EU’s Seventh Framework
Programme (FP7), aimed to develop a technology that permits large capacities of
electrical energy to be transmitted, distributes, stored whenever required.
· The
adoption of renewable solar and wind energy requires massive energy storage
systems. The use of energy related metals such as vanadium, cobalt, and lithium
market are a high cost solution to produce the storage batteries. Hence, the
zinc-air batteries are gaining traction from solar and wind industry.
· The
growing rural projects to provide access to electricity in the communities and
rural areas are creating demand for zinc-air rechargeable battery. While other
batteries cost $300 to $500 per kilowatt hour, zinc-air batteries cost not more
than $100 per kilowatt hour. The current use of zinc and air battery growth is
also associated with several government projects.
· Earlier, due to use of lithium-ion batteries the electric vehicles manufactures faced many technological barriers such as long recharging times, limited driving range and others. The increasing focus of manufactures into metal-air batteries give rise to use of zinc-air batteries in the electric vehicles. The growing demand for zinc-air batteries will fuel the growth prospects in the market.
Global Zinc-Air Batteries Market: Challenges
Presence of mercury traces in the
zinc-air batteries can be hazardous for human. Mercury can leak outside the
zinc-batteries that increases the risk of mercury poisoning. Furthermore, the
oxygen-reducing reaction used for catalyzing electrodes to gain high
performance is very sluggish due to which the zinc air batteries market players
face challenges. To overcome these challenges, the countries mandate to
manufacture mercury free batteries. Also, performance of the anode can be
improved using zinc nanoparticles that will enhance the overall performance.
