Opportunities for EFB, bi-polar and AGM batteries despite forecast lead to lose market share

Advanced lead battery technologies will see a rise in demand during the next five years despite the chemistry losing some of its market share to lithium-ion, according to a forecast made during Battery Council International (BCI) virtual conference.

Ray Kubis, chairman of Gridtential Energy, made the prediction during his five-year forecast for batteries in transportation applications during the BCI event on 27 April.
