  • Battery Market in Western Africa Driver:
    • Shift of the automotive industry toward EV:

Stringent regulations are imposed, which ensure compliance with the Paris Agreement on climate change. EVs are considered a green solution for the decarbonization of the transportation sector. On average, EVs release half the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) released by conventional vehicles. HEVs combine the advantages of both gasoline engines and electric motors. Thus, the sale of EVs has been increasing steadily since the past decade. To promote their sales further, governments of several countries such as Nigeria are framing objectives and offering incentives in the form of monetary and non-monetary benefits. This will result in increased confidence among manufacturers and other stakeholders in future policy frameworks and fuel investment mobilization. Such factors will support the market growth in the coming years.

  • Battery Market in Western Africa Challenge:
    • Declining cost of lithium-ion batteries:

One of the key challenges to the battery market growth in Western Africa is the declining cost of lithium-ion batteries owing to improvements in production scale and manufacturing efficiency. For instance, Tesla, US-based energy storage and the automotive company aims to bring down the cost of Li-ion batteries to USD 100 per kWh with the commissioning of its Gigafactory. Companies are enhancing Li-ion batteries in every conceivable way, which will lead to a year-by-year reduction in the cost of these batteries. The product offerings of vendors manufacturing lithium-ion batteries are becoming more competitive with substitute technologies such as lead-acid batteries and Ni-MH batteries. Such factors can hinder the profitability of the battery market manufacturers in West Africa during the forecast period.
