Flow Battery Market Outlook - 2027

The global flow battery market size is experiencing a significant growth and is expected to grow considerably in the next few years. Worldwide financial development with expanding arrival of carbon dioxide disturbs ecosphere and causes huge effects on environmental change. A nature friendly course to produce power from sustainable sources, for instance, solar and wind is desirable. Hence, to boost use of sustainable and renewable energy to improve stability of grid networks, energy storage systems are needed to store surplus electricity. The deposited energy can be then distributed to end clients. Therefore, electrochemical energy storage with rechargeable batteries built on redox chemistry can offer a central resolution to handle such issues. Cost, framework adaptability, safety concerns, and quick response for huge scope applications, redox flow batteries show extraordinary result over different types of batteries, for example, lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries and are projected to have expanding business space through industrial improvement in the future.

COVID-19 scenario Analysis: 

• The global industry has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. Due to the ongoing worldwide lockdown, the market is estimated to observe a sluggish growth.
• The impact of COVID-19 on this market is temporary as just the production and supply chain is stalled. Once the situation improves, production, supply chains, and demand are gradually going to increase. 
• As an effect, a notable decline in the non-volatile flow battery sales and demand globally has been observed. Moreover, owing to increase in conflicts between two large economies, such as imposition of heavy tariff in the U.S. on several electronic products imported from China, which is further expected to hamper the flow battery market share.

Top impacting factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers, and Impact Analysis

Governments across the globe support renewable energy to preserve non-renewable energy resources such as coal, natural gas, and oil. In addition, rise in technological progresses in the telecom business lead to growth in setting up of towers fixed with increasing acceptance of flow batteries in electric vehicles, which boost the flow battery market growth. On the basis of type, the redox segment is expected to lead the market throughout the forecast period, owing to rise in demand for redox flow battery in utilities, industrial, and commercial applications. On the basis of material, the vanadium segment is likely to lead the market during the forecast period, owing to its usage in telecommunications, EV charging station, microgrid, and military applications.

Surge in usage in automotive and industrial applications 

From industry vertical point of view, the flow battery market is split into various types, which include automobile, telecommunication, industrial, and military & defense. In 2016, the automobile and telecommunication industry gathered a main share in the end-use industry segment of the global market. It happens mainly due to increase in adoption of hybrid vehicles and rise in telecommunication tower installations, which use flow battery as alternate power energy back up. Also, growing demand from utility areas and characteristic usage of flow battery in industrial applications are enhancing the global market growth. Rise in investments in defense & military applications, government funding and investments in R&D is projected to drive the flow battery market. However, absence of appropriate standards for manufacturing of flow batteries hinders the global flow battery market growth.
