From a growth perspective, the automotive sector would be the most prominent user of these batteries and is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR of 13.6 per cent during the period.

The research also reveals that Asia-Pacific is the largest revenue-generating region in this market, followed by North America. The Asia-Pacific region is likely to exhibit the highest growth, with a CAGR of 12.4 per cent during the forecast period. The growth would be driven by the rising demand from consumer electronics segment and increasing number of electric vehicles in China, Japan and India.
