OPPORTUNITIES: Increasing research and development for advancements in batteries
Various manufacturers undertake research and development to develop durable and safer batteries. As the world is moving toward adopting clean energy, there has been a significant increase in the R&D initiatives undertaken by battery manufacturers for developing different battery chemistries. For instance, major players such as Amprius Inc. (US) and Nexeon Corporation (UK) are developing silicon anode batteries with enhanced features. These advanced silicon anode batteries are expected to be adopted in different industries and sectors in the coming years.
CHALLENGES: High cost of battery-operated industrial vehicles
Automated and customized industrial battery-operated mining vehicles, material-handling equipment, AGVs, and forklifts have high manufacturing and installation costs. Industrial vehicles require high energy capacity to be operational anytime and over a long period. The high installation cost is one of the major factors preventing manufacturers from entering the cost-conscious market.
Recent Developments
