A significant fraction of the region's population is still living without access to electricity and depends on conventional fuels such as kerosene and diesel. Lithium-ion battery integrated energy storage solutions are likely to witness an increasing rate of adoption due to the technical benefits associated with them and declining lithium-ion battery prices. However, the market is led by the lead-acid battery segment in 2021. The increasing popularity of the lithium-ion battery is expected to allow the segment to grow at a CAGR of over 14% through the forecast period. The automotive battery segment is expected to be the fastest growing segment in the battery market owing to the increasing demand from new vehicles produced in the region, and the segment is expected to be the leading end-user for lithium-ion batteries in upcoming years. Policy support enables market growth by making vehicles appealing to consumers, reducing risks for investors, and encouraging manufacturers to develop electric vehicles on a large scale. The industrial segment is expected to remain the least contributing sector by the end of the year 2026. Automotive production in countries like Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia witnessed decent growth. Therefore, the increasing trend of automotive production in the major countries of Southeast Asia is expected to drive the Asia-Pacific battery market, especially the lead-acid type, during the forecast period. Plans to integrate renewable energy with the national grids in respective countries are expected to create a significant opportunity for lithium-ion battery manufacturers and suppliers in the future. The global production of batteries for electric vehicles is concentrated in Asia-Pacific, with Chinese, Japanese, and South Korean companies dominating the sector and building factories in Europe to conserve their supremacy. As of 2020, China was the largest market for electric vehicles, as the country accounted for approximately 39% of the global sales by the number of vehicles sold. The country is also making efforts to reduce air pollution levels, which is further expected to push the automotive battery segment. The rapidly developing renewable sector, the growth in the automotive industry, and the increasing sale of consumer electronics are among the key factors reinforcing the global battery market in China. As one of the largest automotive markets across the globe, nearly 4.67 million commercial vehicles, as well as 21.41 million passenger cars, were manufactured in the country in 2021. Moreover, with a manufacturing volume of approximately 21.41 million passenger vehicles, China ranked first among the nations with the highest passenger car production. In addition, every fourth passenger vehicle manufacturer in the world, on average, is manufactured in China.

In Japan, there have been significant developments by the market players in battery technology and electric vehicles. For instance, Toyota unveiled its first mass-produced battery electric car, "the bZ4X sport utility vehicle (SUV)," with a plan to lease the electric car at an amount equivalent to $39,000 for the first four years. In addition, Nissan announced its second battery-electric vehicle model, the Ariya SUV, in 2022. Further, the advancements and R&D of battery chemistries account for significant growth in the country. Founded in 1875, Toshiba Corporation is a Japan-based multinational company headquartered in Minato, Tokyo. The company is one of the biggest consumer electronics manufacturers of personal computers, home appliances, and medical equipment. Additionally, as a result of research and development, the company files approximately 7000 patent applications annually in different segments. These form the corporate assets of the company. The company has a strong presence in Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. Based on policy-level support from the government encouraging the manufacturing sector, India is likely to experience significant growth in the Asia-Pacific battery market. India is among the top five emitters of CO2 in the world. To mitigate the problem of air pollution, the government has taken the initiative to implement policies favorable to increasing the EV fleet count on the road. In the current market scenario, policy support plays a crucial role in driving the adoption of electric vehicles. Policy support enables market growth by making vehicles appealing to consumers, reducing risks for investors, and encouraging manufacturers to develop electric vehicles on a large scale. Falling battery prices and improving technology are expected to bring price-competitive electric vehicles to the market, creating demand for battery technologies. The Indian government has taken several initiatives to promote electric vehicles. In April 2019, Phase II of the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles (FAME) India scheme was implemented for three years. The scheme’s main objective is to promote faster adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles by providing an incentive on the purchase of electric vehicles and creating the necessary charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, thereby boosting the automotive battery segment. However, the FAME India Scheme (which started in April 2019) was supposed to end by 2022. However, with the approval of competent authorities, the union government decided in June 2021 that the FAME India Phase II Scheme would be extended for two years, i.e., up to March 2024. In the first quarter of 2021, the union government increased incentives for electric two- and three-wheelers in order to encourage widespread adoption. According to some industry experts, the government wanted to utilize the funds earmarked for the FAME scheme, with the sale of EVs remaining muted for the past two years.

COVID-19 Impacts: The COVID-19 outbreak slightly impacted the region's battery market, especially lithium-ion batteries, which are used in many applications, including consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and other applications. The largest growth area has been electric vehicles (EVs) during the pandemic. China, which dominates global lithium-ion battery production, has seen its biggest lithium-ion manufacturers (Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. (CATL) and BYD) curtail production due to a lack of workers and access to raw materials. Major factors driving the market include declining lithium-ion battery prices; rapid adoption of electric vehicles; a growing renewable sector; and increased sales of consumer electronics. On the other hand, the demand-supply mismatch of raw materials is likely to hinder the market’s growth in the coming years.
