logo Growth Drivers

  • Growing demand for electric or hybrid boats to drive market growth

The global marine battery market is projected to grow owing to the increasing demand for hybrid or electric boats that offer several advantages over conventional boats. The world is currently moving toward measures to reduce carbon emissions due to the growing pollution rate and its impact on the ecosystem. Hence, there is an increasing focus on environment-friendly measures that not only have less impact on the environment but also prove to be fuel-efficient. This has led to the growing demand for electric vehicles including marine automobiles. Marine batteries can be crucial to powering electric water boats since they are capable of handling the harsh environment that water vehicles and devices onboard are subjected to.

Furthermore, the increasing investments in offshore wind energy could become a driving factor for the global sales volume since the industry is expanding rapidly. Marine batteries in this segment are used to store the energy thus generated. Offshore wind energy has tremendous potential as the demand for renewable energy increases at a rapid rate. As investments in the sector continue to rise, the demand for marine batteries is expected to benefit from the trend.

logo Restraints

  • High cost of initial investment to restrict the market growth

Marine batteries are different from traditional batteries and require specialized systems and mechanisms to develop effective and long-running batteries. The initial cost of investment for developing marine batteries is exceptionally high and small market players may find it intimidating to compete with large-scale producers and suppliers. Furthermore, this could delay higher adoption of marine batteries since the cost of maintenance is equally high and currently, there is a significant lack in the availability of parts that help marine batteries run efficiently.

logo Opportunities

  • Growing research & development to provide higher growth opportunities

Since end-user applications for marine batteries have witnessed a significant rise in the last few years, the investment toward research & development of new battery chemistries has increased tremendously. Universities and research centers have increased funding on determining the efficiency of other battery chemistries like solid-state batteries and lithium-sulfur batteries. These events are expected to help the global industry register higher growth opportunities since they may offer longer shelf life along with higher energy density.

logo Challenges

  • Limited range to act as a challenge during the growth phase

Marine batteries currently face issues in terms of having limited capacity and range. For ships or boats that require long trips, marine batteries can be relied on completely and offshore companies have to invest in additional measures to ensure that the systems run without any glitches during the entire sailing period. Furthermore, the durability and reliability of the batteries in terms of harsh environments are doubtful which is another challenge the industry players need to overcome.

logoSegmentation Analysis

The global marine battery market is segmented based on propulsion type, ship type, capacity, battery function, and region

Based on propulsion the global market segments are fully electric, hybrid, and conventional.

  • The global market registered the highest growth in the fully electric segment in 2022 and it may continue to dominate the market during the forecast period
  • Several benefits associated with the use of electric batteries are the reasons for high CAGR
  • For instance, they offer reduced emissions as compared to traditional batteries while also having a less negative impact on the aquatic life
  • Furthermore, reduced noise pollution and improved performance efficiency are important driving factors
  • Currently, the world has less than 1% of freshwater accessible for further use

Based on ship type, the global market divisions are unmanned, defense, and commercial.

Based on capacity, the global market is divided into >250 Ah, 100 to 250 Ah, and <100 Ah.

  • Every ship has its specific need and it is difficult to quantify the most popular battery capacity
  • However, the most significantly used capacity is the 100 to 250 AH segment since the range suits the requirements of small and large boats
  • Ship owners give importance to other factors as well when choosing battery capacity to be installed onboard
  • Some of these other factors are battery voltage, type of battery, and discharge rate
  • A battery with a charge capacity of 10 Ah can provide up to 10 Amps per hour

Based on battery function, the global market is divided into dual purposes batteries, starting batteries, and deep-cycle batteries.

logoRecent Developments:

  • In October 2021, Electric Fuel, a leading manufacturer of professional-grade high-performance batteries, announced the launch of a new lithium-ion marine battery with 48V high energy density. The launch was announced at the METSTRADE 2021 show held in Amsterdam
  • In June 2022, Leclanché, a Swiss battery manufacturer, announced that it had reached the final development stage of the third generation of the company’s marine battery system. The new technology is customized to meet the requirements of shipbuilders producing hybrid and electric vessels
  • In December 2022, researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT)- Roorkee announced that they had successfully developed a short endurance machine ship that operated using a battery. The new unit has the potential to replace small traditionally-powered vessels
