The lithium-ion energy accumulator market size is anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR of 12.25% during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the rising urbanization and increasing demand for consumer electronics items.

A lithium ion energy accumulator is an electrical device that can charge and discharge lithium ion batteries. A positive and negative electrode are separated by a separator, and an electrolytic solution is added. The positive and negative electrode materials react chemically to charge and discharge the accumulator. The majority of lithium ion batteries are found in laptops, desktop computers, and mobile phones.
Li-ion accumulators are more stable and may be refilled hundreds of times. Compared to conventional rechargeable batteries, they feature a better energy density, voltage capacity, and low self-discharge rate.
The Covid-19 pandemic affected the demand and supply of lithium-ion energy accumulator market. Lockdown across the globe, supply chain disorders, and oscillating supply of raw materials forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to unfortunate decline in market growth. Launch of vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Increasing urbanization, has led to increased demand of consumer electronics items this is projected to fuel the market during the forecast period.
