Global Grid-scale Energy Storage Market & Forecasts Report, 2016: Who Dominates the Industry?
M2 - Fri Dec 20, 8:05AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/hpm6j2/global_gridscale) has announced the addition of the "Global Grid-scale Energy Storage Market & Forecasts Report, 2016" report to their offering. One of the major drivers is the increasing need to reduce power blackouts. The increasing incidence of power blackouts is one of the major issues faced by various power end-users across the globe, a major solution for which is the adoption of energy storage technologies in the power grid. Storage of power in the power grid enables power utilities to provide the storage power as backup during power blackouts; this will in turn increase reliability of the power grid. Various countries across the globe are investing in the Clean Energy sector. For instance, as part of the expansion in the Clean Energy sector, China has entered into a clean energy agreement through the US-China Energy Cooperation Program. The main purpose of the Energy Cooperation Program is to promote the clean energy technology of the US in China, thus generating business opportunities for companies in both countries. This increased investment in the Clean Energy sector is one of the major driving factors for the growth of the Global Grid-scale Energy Storage market. This is because grid-scale energy storage assists clean technology by reducing the power loss and by enabling the maximum and best utilization of the power grid. This one of the major trends observed in the Global Grid-scale Energy Storage market. Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in this market is the reluctance of power utilities to upgrade systems in power grids. The installation and usage of various grid-scale energy storage technologies results in increased costs for the power utilities. As a result, various power utilities are reluctant to upgrade their power grids if the previously-installed systems are not damaged. This reluctance makes it difficult for the market to grow at a fast pace in the future. The key vendors dominating this market space are: - A123 Systems LLC - ABB Group - Beacon Power LLC - Build Your Dream Co. Ltd. - GE Energy LLC - Panasonic Corp. - S&C Electric Co. Inc. - Schneider Electric SA - Siemens AG - Toshiba International Corp. Pty Ltd. - VYCON Inc. Key Topics Covered: 01. Executive Summary 02. Scope of the Report 03. Market Research Methodology 04.

Global Lithium Ion Battery (Cathode, Anode, and Electrolytic Solution) Market Report 2013-2019
M2 - Thu Dec 19, 9:41AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/qzzqhd/global_lithium) has announced the addition of the "Global Lithium Ion Battery Market - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2013 - 2019" report to their offering. The global market was USD 11.70 billion in 2012 and is expected to reach USD 33.11 billion in 2019, growing at a CAGR of 14.4% from 2013 to 2019. Lithium ion batteries are rechargeable batteries in which lithium ions move from anode to cathode during discharge and traverse back to anode while charging. They are available in different form factors such as small cylindrical, large cylindrical, pouch and prismatic. The market is expected to witness robust growth during the forecast period. This is due to the advantages such as higher efficiency, longer life time in compare to other batteries. Increasing applications of lithium-ion battery in the automotive sector such as in cars and buses is further expected to fuel growth in the coming years. Rising cost of fuel has paved the way for alternate means of transportation. The popularity of Electric Vehicles and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) has increased over the past couple of years. These vehicles are powered by lithium ion batteries. In addition, stringent government regulations to regulate the carbon emission in many countries in Europe and North America are supporting the adoption of lithium ion batteries in vehicles. The energy requirement of consumers in electronic devices has grown in the recent years. Heavy processors in cellphone and high graphic support in devices such as Tablet PCs has increased the consumption of battery in many devices. Moreover, number of applications in smartphone is increasing and there is a necessity of higher life cycle and slow battery discharge in these devices. The growing energy requirement offer potential opportunities to the market in the coming years. The major factors restraining the growth of lithium-ion battery are high price and low awareness about its advantages over other batteries. This results in lower adoption across different product segments such as automotive, industrial and electronics sectors. Moreover, there is a risk of fire in certain applications in different industries. Lithium-ion batteries can erupt and explode in high heat conditions. However, technological advancements to eliminate this risk are taking place and this will support the growth in the coming years.

Supercharged France to Be Key Player in Electric Vehicle Battery Production Boom
M2 - Mon Jul 22, 8:53AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/hp5wpw/electric_vehicle) has announced the addition of the "Electric Vehicle Battery Market - Market Size, Investment Analysis, and Forecast to 2020" report to their offering. A strong manufacturing base and incentives for the purchase of Electric Vehicles (EVs) will push France to the fore of the global EV battery market, says research and consulting firm The authors. According to the company's latest report, EV battery market revenue in France will increase exponentially in the coming years, from a modest $380m in 2012 to $7.2 billion in 2020, representing a dramatic Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 44.2%. Such explosive growth will make France a major figure in the global electric vehicle battery market, with only Japan ($10.3 billion) and China ($8.5 billion) forecast to have more valuable markets by 2020. France is home to a number of significant battery and EV manufacturers, with Renault in particular expected to play a key role in the development of the country's battery industry. The French car maker, in collaboration with Nissan and the French Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission (CEA), is currently building a factory outside Paris with an annual production capacity of 100,000 to 350,000 EV batteries. Furthermore, France has improved tax incentives aimed at popularizing EVs that will correspondingly boost the country's battery market. In August 2012, the government increased the bonus for those purchasing low-carbon emission vehicles from up to 5,000 to 7,000 - a move expected to help France meet its target of 2 million electric cars on its roads by the end of the decade. Taking into account the country's commitment to the promotion and adoption of electric vehicles, The authors expects France's share of the global EV battery market to surge from a modest 3.7% in 2012 to 16.2% in 2020.

Global and Chinese Lithium Iron Phosphate Material and Battery Industry Report, 2012-2015
M2 - Tue Jun 25, 9:07AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6ls2dm/global_and) has announced the addition of the "Global and Chinese Lithium Iron Phosphate Material and Battery Industry Report, 2012-2015" report to their offering. In 2012, global lithium iron phosphate industry continued enjoying a strong development momentum. Regionally speaking, however, the growth of lithium iron phosphate industry claimed severe differentiation. In regions beyond China, since the EV industry, the biggest lithium iron phosphate battery consumption market, developed not as well as expected, industrial players are confronted with the risk of withdrawing from the market or even bankrupting as a result of increasingly growing loss. At the same time, in contrast, counterparts from Chinese mainland and Taiwan witnessed smooth development, thanks to mature lithium battery industry as well as developed EV industry. Thus, the lithium iron phosphate industry is increasingly shifting to mainland China and Taiwan. The report
