The global lead-acid battery market is projected to grow from USD 62.6 billion in 2024 to USD 106.8 billion by 2034, driven by a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% over the next decade.
This growth is expected to be fueled by increasing demand across various industries such as telecommunications, manufacturing, automotive, mining, oil and gas, and chemicals. Lead-acid batteries are favored by end users for their cost-effectiveness, ability to withstand overcharging, availability in a wide range of sizes and specifications, and capacity to handle large current volumes.
Manufacturers are also emphasizing the recyclability of lead-acid batteries to boost adoption. In some countries, the recyclability rate exceeds 90%, which contributes to lower battery costs, resource conservation, and reduced environmental impact, making these batteries even more appealing to consumers. Additionally, the rising trend of electric vehicle (EV) adoption is expected to further drive lead-acid battery sales in the coming years.
