Despite a number of signs indicating a possible global economic
slowdown, the outlook for the Worldwide Power Pack market is expected
to remain strong. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF),
the world economy is projected to grow by 4.9% in
2008, with some of the strongest growth coming from the Asian
region. This growth will have a positive effect on the consumer market
and will contribute to the expansion of the power pack market for
2008. Given this strong consumer demand, the Worldwide Power
Pack market for portable electronics is projected to grow from 1.9
billion units in 2008 to 3.1 billion units in 2013, a compounded
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%.
The worldwide dollar market is expected to increase at a somewhat
slower CAGR of 6.2%, growing from $7.9 billion in 2008 to $10.7
billion in 2013. Although the battery pack market is mature, and some
segments have slowed, the industry as a whole is still strong and
expanding. For the purpose of this report, the worldwide market
includes three regions: North America, Europe and Asia. Overall, we
expect steady growth for the portable battery pack market over the
forecast period in each of these regions.
Our forecasts show that the rechargeable battery pack market will
see substantial growth over the next several years.
This growth will be in spite of the fact that the technology
driving the development of portable electronic devices has far
outpaced the technological development of batteries. In fact, it has
been acknowledged that batteries are still the limiting factor in the
development of newer and smaller technologies.
This challenge has many research companies and manufacturers
pushing to develop new technologies to better meet the increasing
power demand of new devices. However, for the time being, Li-ion,
Li-polymer, Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) and Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd) will
remain the four major chemistries that dominate the portable battery
market.
The market described in this report covers 14 key consumer
electronics applications that use portable rechargeable battery packs.
For the purpose of this report, when a battery is discussed, it refers
to a battery pack. Since new technologies are under development, we
will also include fuel cells in this report.
The 2008 Power Packs report will examine both "smart" and "dumb"
batteries. Smart batteries will refer to batteries that include
specific electronics within the battery pack for the purpose of safety
and power management. Batteries that lack those electronics will be
referred to as dumb batteries. NiCd batteries and a portion of NiMH
batteries are considered dumb batteries. The remainder of the
batteries are considered smart. As the prices of power packs decline,
especially those with Li-ion batteries, manufacturers have found it to
be more cost effective to introduce smart batteries to lower-end
products that are more price sensitive. Since our last report in 2005,
smart batteries have continued to aggressively penetrate the market.
Smart power packs are expected to see a CAGR of 11.0%, increasing from
1.7 billion units in 2008 to 2.9 billion units in 2013. By 2013 smart
power packs will increase from 93.7% to 95.6% of the total power pack
market for portable devices.
This report will also only look at the original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) market, and will not include the battery
replacement market. The market figures presented in the following
sections will be based on the cost of power packs to OEMs, not to the
end users. In addition, the cost of a smart power pack is assumed to
decline over time, and this decline will include battery cells, fuel
cells and electronics. Price declines will vary from chemistry to
chemistry and between various types of applications. The following
sections of this report will present forecasts in units, dollars and
pricing trends. They will be are broken down by chemistry and by
end-use application. Before introducing the detailed forecasts, a
section detailing some of the forecasting assumptions will be
presented.
