Renewable energy

Key vendors to focus on improving sales and distribution to gain market shares.

Technavio, a company that develops over 2000 pieces of research every year and covers more than 500 technologies across 80 countries, has announced the top five vendors for the global lead-acid battery aftermarket in their latest research report. This report also lists 21 other prominent vendors who are expected to contribute to this market’s growth between 2017-2021.

Competitive vendor landscape

The global lead-acid battery aftermarket is comprised of many global, regional, and local vendors. The market is characterized by intense competition, rapid advances in technology, frequent changes in government policies, and environmental regulations. The declining prices of Li-ion batteries and rapidly changing preferences of end-users toward other advanced battery technologies during the forecast period is likely to hinder the growth of the market according to Technavio’s research analysts.

According to Abhay Sinha, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on energy storage, “As stricter standards related to carbon emissions are being imposed across the glove, owing to increasing GHG emissions, investors becoming increasingly wary about investing in the market. New and existing vendors in the market space are making efforts to improve their sales, distribution, and working capital effectively to sustain their operations, as the market dynamics for lead-acid batteries are volatile.”
