According to a newly released report from NanoMarkets, an industry analyst firm based here, the value of the thin-film and printed battery market will reach $5.6 billion by 2015. The report, "Thin Film and Printed Battery Markets" is the next in NanoMarkets' ongoing series that covers the emerging markets for thin film, organic and printable electronics. Additional details including a brief summary are available on the firm's website at http://www.nanomarkets.net. From the Report: According to NanoMarkets' new report, thin-film and printed batteries with their customizable shapes, flexible form factors and ultra-low weight are enabling new functionality to be added to a broad range of electronic products, such as smartcards, RFID and sensors, both increasing their usefulness and the size of their addressable markets. While many of the players in this space are smaller firms, several big name firms including Air Products, Dow Chemical, Intel, and NEC have invested in this space underscoring its strategic importance. This technology segment is also one where volume is everything both in terms of manufacturability and sales prospects. Thin film and printable batteries can be delivered at attractive price points when produced in significant quantities and with the right processes. For technologies such as RFID, sensors, smart cards and medical devices that are also high volume and cost sensitive, the ability for manufacturers to add cheap power sources is crucial. When you also factor in the ability for these batteries to extend these applications beyond their current usage, battery manufacturers can create a winning proposition for their customers. In terms of market potential, NanoMarkets' report projects that the thin film and printed battery markets will be driven primarily by RFID which by 2015 will generate $4.6 billion in revenues, smart cards which will generate $346 million in revenues and sensors that will create $434 million in revenues. The NanoMarkets study predicts that printing will have a growing role in the next generation of smart batteries resulting in the growth in demand for zinc manganese dioxide or carbon zinc inks. The study also predicts that there will be a growing number of alternatives for the dominant LiPON electrolytes, with improved conductivity and thermal properties. While thin- film batteries using conventional lithium-based materials will remain the dominant factor, non lithium battery revenues will grow to $2.5 billion by 2015 About the Report: NanoMarkets' new report, "Thin Film and Printed Battery Markets" provides a complete analysis of the commercial opportunities in thin film and printable battery markets. The report includes detailed eight-year forecasts of thin- film/printable batteries broken out by battery types, applications, and chemistries as well as strategic profiles of leading firms developing and marketing this emerging technology. Among the firms mentioned in the report are Air Products, BioKey Engineering, Biophan, Boundless Corporation, Cryovac, Cymbet, Cypak, Dow Chemical, E-Ink, Enable IPC, Ener 1, Enfucell, ESL Electroscience, EnOcean, Excellatron, Front Edge Technology, Infinite Power Solutions, In-Q-Tel, Intel, Mide, NanoEner, NEC, Nemoptic, Oak Ridge Micro Energy, MPhase, Perpetum, Powercast, PowerID, Power Paper, Qynergy, Rocket, Solicore, Sony, Tadiran Batteries, Thin Battery Technologies, Ultralife, Varta, Visa, VTT and ZBD. Among the technologies covered are Lithium Ion, Lithium polymer, Lithium Manganese Dioxide, Lithium Thionyl chloride, Lithium Phosphorus Oxynitride, Lithium Oxygen, Carbon Zinc and Zinc Manganese Dioxide.
