Automotive Lead Acid Battery Market Driver and Opportunities

Lead acid Batteries are Easily Recyclable Compared to Lithium Ion Battery to Favor Market Growth.

Battery recycling entails carefully removing and neutralizing sulfuric acid from used batteries. This procedure limits the discharge of hazardous sulfuric acid into the environment, lowering the danger of soil and water contamination. Lithium-ion batteries contain no toxic chemicals, while lead-acid batteries do. Both of these battery types are recyclable. However, lead-acid batteries are more easily recycled in most places of the world than lithium-ion batteries. Approximately 95% of the materials in lead-acid batteries are recyclable, making them an environmentally responsible choice. Thus, the demand for lead-acid batteries is expected to grow during the forecast period.

Increasing Passenger Car and Light Commercial Vehicle Sales

According to the article published in the Economic Times, passenger car wholesales in India achieved a new high of 42,18,746 units in the fiscal year 2023-24.
