Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery Market: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2030 Market

Nickel-metal hydride batteries are specific type of rechargeable batteries. These batteries are manufactured by using nickel and cadmium and are produced in standardized cylindrical forms. Nickel metal hydride batteries are used in several gadgets such as cameras and other electrical appliances and also used in electric vehicles. 

COVID-19 Scenario Analysis:

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the global nickel-metal hydride battery market.

• China, being the epicenter of the pandemic was completely shutdown which resulted in an absolute halt in the manufacturing activities and the imports and exports as well. Since, China is a major market for battery electrolytes, the outbreak of the pandemic had a huge impact on the nickel-metal hydride battery market.
• Due to the economic downfall caused by this pandemic, the demand for electronics and automobiles decreased dramatically. This resulted in a decrease in demand for batteries in these major end-user industries, thereby affecting the growth of the nickel-metal hydride battery market. 

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

The rapid industrialization and technological advancements across the globe have led to the increase in demand for reliable sources of energy in the market. The rapid growth of the electrical and electronic sector acts as a major driver for the growth of the global nickel-metal hydride batteries market. The chemical and mechanical stability of these batteries along with their compact shape make them a popular choice for usage in several electrical devices. Moreover, these batteries are also used in the electronic vehicles and hybrid cars, which add to the rise in demand for nickel-metal hydride batteries in the market. Several major companies are investing in the research and development to improve the reaction kinetics and the stability of these batteries. The German battery manufacturer VARTA AG Acquired Energizer Holdings Inc., which is a U.S. based company to expand its portfolio in the market. However, stringent regulations on the usage of cadmium along with the presence of alternatives such as the lithium-ion batteries limit the market growth.
