An increasing number of new Giga factory projects by manufacturers is expected to offer potential growth opportunities to the market y. For instance, in November 2019, Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk pledged to build ""Gigafactory 4"" in the Berlin area. It is planning to build batteries, powertrains, and vehicles, starting with Model Y"" a lower-priced sports utility vehicle at the factory.

Threat:

Deprived Lifecycles of Silicon Materials

Silicon has the property of soaking large amounts of lithium-ions. Therefore, the volume of silicon anode increases when lithium ions bind with silicon. Hence, repeated expansion and contraction of silicon anode while charging and discharging decreases the performance of the battery. This, in turn, is expected to be a major threat to the growth of the market.

Consumer electronics segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The consumer electronics segment is a prominent application segment in the market, due to its huge storage capacity and huge demand for lithium-ion with silicon anode. Its reliability, huge energy storage, long cycle life, and safety features help to grow the market. The development in the battery would demand a high value of portable devices in consumer electronics applications. The utilization of high-end technologies in the energy industries is expected to witness huge opportunities. The use of it helps in storing huge amounts of energy, thus, increasing the potential of the battery; the high storage of energy helps several automotive manufacturers to raise an electric range of vehicles. The silicon anode battery also helps in lessening the cost of manufacturers. Furthermore, the growth in the demand for electric vehicles would help in an increase in silicon anode batteries. Hence, these above factors have a positive impact on the market globally.

The 3,000-10,000 mAh segments is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
