Various government authorities around the world have undertaken numerous initiatives to encourage the sales of electric vehicles. For instance, the US federal government is offering incentives such as tax breaks, fleet acquisition, manufacturing support, and R&D funding. Similarly, the Indian government is actively promoting the adoption of electric vehicles by providing incentives for building charging infrastructure, manufacturing EV batteries domestically, and producing electric components. Moreover, several governing bodies in emerging economies are implementing strategic policies to transition from internal combustion engines (ICE) to electric vehicles, in order to improve the air quality in densely populated areas. Therefore, the favorable government initiatives are anticipated to boost the growth of the automotive battery thermal management market in the forecast period.
The increasing preference for advanced technology-based vehicles, particularly those that are lightweight, is expected to fuel the growth of the automotive battery thermal management market. Industry leaders and customers alike tend to favor the use of lithium-ion battery technology in vehicles for various applications, given its higher energy density, longer battery life cycle, and superior resilience. Similarly, companies rely on these batteries in thermal battery management systems to ensure proper functioning and safety. Automakers have started to incorporate these batteries in various applications such as electronic devices, EVs, and industrial machinery. Furthermore, these batteries can detect various types of malfunctions, such as excessive temperature rise and electric leaks, as well as monitor the state of charge at different temperatures in the charging/discharging environment. The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted many developing countries, including India, to encourage local production of li-ion batteries and automotive battery thermal management systems. As a result, countries are now moving towards local production of all components and raw materials, rather than relying on China for Li-ion batteries, electronic components, and other requirements. These steps, along with supportive government policies and infrastructure development, are expected to drive the demand for the Battery Thermal Management market in the coming years.
The Automotive Battery Thermal Management Market is segmented based on its application into Air, Liquid, Phase Change Material, and Thermo Electrics. The Liquid segment is projected to have the highest CAGR and dominate the Automotive Battery Thermal Management market share during the forecast period. The liquid battery cooling system relies on a flat heat pipe and offers an excellent thermal management effect on a single battery pack, making it the most efficient way to dissipate heat from the battery pack. Liquid coolants have higher heat capacity and conductivity than air, making them the optimal choice for maintaining battery temperature. Thermal management systems mainly use two types of liquids: direct-contact and indirect-contact liquid. Direct-contact liquids, such as mineral oil, come into direct contact with battery cells, while indirect-contact liquids, like a mixture of water and ethylene glycol, contact battery cells indirectly
January 2021: Robert Bosch GmbH utilized intelligent thermal management to increase the range of electric vehicles by up to 25%. To accomplish this, the company combined a heat pump with innovative coolant pumps and valves, enabling precise distribution of heat and cold within the vehicle
The Automotive Battery Thermal Management Market is segmented based on applications into Hybrid Electric Vehicles, Battery Electric Vehicles, Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles, and Fuel Cell Vehicles. The Hybrid Electric Vehicles segment is projected to have the highest CAGR and dominate the Automotive Battery Thermal Management market share during the forecast period. Hybrid Electric Vehicles use a combination of fuel injection and electricity to operate, with the battery helping to use fuel more efficiently while being recharged by the fuel. These vehicles cannot be charged via a plug but rely on regenerative braking and internal combustion engines for recharging. Modern hybrid vehicles come equipped with technologies such as regenerative brakes and start-stop systems to improve their efficiency. The increasing focus on reducing emission levels and improving vehicle fuel economy is driving the demand for hybrid electric vehicles. For example, the Road and Transport Authority of Dubai has announced plans to convert 50% of the emirate's taxis to hybrid vehicles by 2021.

In Europe, the European Union (EU) is leading the development of a sustainable circular economy and carbon-free transport system. The manufacturers in Europe have adopted two different approaches for developing electric vehicle models: conversion and purpose. The "conversion" approach involves incorporating new technology such as electric motors and batteries into existing models, while the "purpose" approach involves developing new vehicles that incorporate the latest technologies. These approaches allow manufacturers to install electric drives in cars, driving the growth of the European automotive battery thermal management market. Additionally, the EU has regulated two policies to regulate average CO2 emissions for new passenger vehicles and vans.
