Analyst Perspective:

Thin film batteries are being used in wearable electronics such as fitness bands, smartwatches, headsets, and other devices because of their improved recharge rate and small size, rising the demand for thin film and printed batteries. Also, the growing adoption of 5G is raising the demand for connected electronic devices, boosting the growth of the market. In addition, the increasing use of smart cards, such as EMV chip card technology, is propelling the demand for thin film and printed batteries worldwide. As smart cards are created at high temperatures of 130–150ºC, which degrades the organic content of ordinary batteries and prevents them from functioning, the demand for thin film and printed batteries is increasing for the production of smart cards, making it another important thin film and printed battery market trend. Furthermore, the growing miniaturization of electronic devices is expected to create growth opportunities for the thin film and printed battery market during the forecast period.

Thin Film and Printed Battery Market Report Overview:

Thin film batteries are solid-state batteries that range in size from nano to millimeters. They consist of an anode, a cathode, an electrolyte, and a separator. Thin-film lithium-ion batteries perform better than regular lithium-ion batteries due to their higher average output voltage, lower weight, higher energy density, longer cycling life, and ability to function at temperatures ranging from -20°C to 60°C. These batteries are utilized in a variety of applications, including smart cards, wireless sensors, laptops, touch screens, astronomical mirrors, RFID tags, photovoltaic energy generation and storage, and implantable devices.

The 5G network is ∼100 times faster than the 4G network, making real-time data acquisition easier. As the 5G network provides strong connectivity and high-speed data transfer, its demand is increasing worldwide. According to the Groupe Speciale Mobile Association (GSMA), 5G penetration globally is expected to reach 54% by 2030 from 17% in 2022. North America had the highest 5G penetration, with 39% in 2022; it is expected to reach 91% by 2030. 5G penetration in Asia Pacific (except China) and Europe is expected to increase from 4% and 11% in 2022 to 41% and 87% by 2030, respectively.

As 5G is the critical new-generation network technology that can enable innovation and support digital transformation, its demand is increasing worldwide. Therefore, the governments of various countries are investing in 5G infrastructure. In July 2021, the government of France announced its plan to invest ~US$ 2.06 billion (EUR 1.7 billion) in its 5G market by 2025 via public and private investments. Through this, the government aims to accelerate the development of 5G in the country. Similarly, in January 2021, the government of South Korea announced that it would increase the coverage of the next-generation mobile networks, particularly 5G, to 85 cities this year from the current seven major cities. It invested ~US$ 115.89 million (KRW 127.9 billion) in 2021 to encourage the use of private 5G networks. With the growing adoption of 5G worldwide, the demand for connected electronic devices is increasing, propelling the thin film and printed battery market growth.
