Market Dynamics

Introduction

A marine battery is a specialized battery designed for use in marine and boating applications. It is specifically engineered to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments, including constant exposure to moisture, vibrations, and fluctuations in temperature. Marine batteries are used to power various electrical systems and equipment on boats, such as navigation lights, radios, fish finders, bilge pumps, and trolling motors. These batteries are typically deep-cycle batteries, which means they can provide a steady flow of power over an extended period. They are constructed with durable materials and advanced technologies to ensure reliable performance and long-lasting power supply on the water.

Market Drivers

The marine industry significantly contributes to global CO2 emissions and pollution. It’s currently undergoing a shift away from fossil fuels towards alternative technologies and fuels to become a zero-emission industry in the long run. Electric power is crucial for addressing pollution in waterways, as electric motors can minimize water contamination and reduce emissions and energy use compared to traditional internal combustion engines. The industry now demands fully reliable, efficient, and safe batteries that are also cost-effective and accessible.

Recent Market JVs and Acquisitions:

A huge number of strategic alliances including M&As, JVs, etc., have been performed over the past few years:

  • C&D Technologies, Inc. acquired Trojan Battery Company, LLC in 2018. This acquisition provided the former with marine capabilities, and the combination created a powerful new leader in the energy storage and transmission industry.

Recent Product Development:

  • EnerSys’ NexSys PURE Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) battery helps reduce the unexpected operating costs associated with conventional lead-acid batteries.
  • EnerSys’ PowerSafe® SBS battery delivers long life, high-energy density, and superior shelf life for a wide range of applications.
