Silicon Anode Battery Market Growth Drivers and Challenges:
Growth Drivers
-
Surge in Launch of Small Spacecraft – For small satellite applications that demand extended life, high energy density, and quick charging periods, silicon anode batteries are a viable technology. Small satellites are frequently employed for a variety of purposes including communication, earth observation, and scientific study therefore, they often need dependable power sources with high energy densities. Over 1700 of the 1849 spacecraft that were launched in 2021 by NASA had a mass of less than 600 kg, known as small satellites.
- Growth in Operation of Power Grid- Batteries with silicon anodes are appealing for ESS applications since they provide several benefits over conventional lithium-ion batteries with graphite.
Challenges
-
Complex Manufacturing Process – Compared to conventional graphite anode lithium-ion batteries, the manufacture of silicon anode batteries is more difficult as silicon expands its volume more during charging and discharging cycles, which could shorten the lifespan of the battery and cause deterioration over time.
- Strict Government Regulations
- High Cost of Silicon Anode Battery
