  Rapid technological advancements and expansion in the telecom sector to boost market growth

  
  

One of the industries that has seen a massive y-o-y growth is the telecom industry. In the times to come, the industry is expected to witness a boom. The competitive wireless telecom industry is all set to experience new levels of challenges, as a new generation of connectivity comes into existence. The telecommunications sector is one of the very few industries experiencing rapid technological development and improvement even during the tough times of recession. This sector continues to be an important force for innovation, growth, and disruption across multiple sectors. The major telecom players in the industry continue to invest in the expansion and development of their processes and operations to capitalize on the increasingly apparent opportunity for bolstered revenue generation streams. With several advancements in the communication technology and increasing interconnectivity of devices, the wireless telecom industry is prepared to continue serving as the primary support source for the overarching technology world.

Further, the rising demand for Lithium-ion batteries is restraining the Lead Acid Battery market. The significant development of lead acid battery over the last few years had suppressed the demand for lead acid battery across the globe. The advantages of using lithium-ion batteries are that they can be monitored using Battery Management System (BMS), low energy consumption can be charged in the indoor environment and are environmentally safe. For instance, in February 2021, Tesla Inc., an automotive and clean energy company announced that it will replace the Lead Acid Battery 12V with Lithium-Ion Batteries in its new models (Model S and Model X).

Additionally, as per the IEA, renewables are expected to have the fastest growth in the electricity sector, resulting in catering to about 30% of the power demand in 2023, up from 24% in 2017. During this period, renewables are estimated to contribute to more than 70% of the global electricity generation. This growth would be led by solar (both photovoltaics and ground mount modules) followed by wind, hydropower, and bioenergy. Hydropower, however, remains the largest renewable source, catering to about 16% of the global electricity demand by 2023, followed by wind catering to a further 6%, solar Photovoltaics (PV) (4%), and bioenergy (3%). In developing regions such as India, the renewable generation target of 175 GW by 2022, declared in 2018 has now been revised to 217 GW. The additional 45 GW is expected to be contributed to by the floating solar technology. Thus, with the increase in the generation, the implementation of these lead acid battery has enhanced the lead acid battery market CAGR across the globe in the recent years.

However, increasing demand for pollution-free electric automobiles coupled with technological advancements driving the growth of the lead acid battery market revenue.
