Northbrook, IL 60062 -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/21/2022 -- The metal-air battery market is projected to grow from USD 498 million in 2022 to USD 993 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 14.8% from 2022 to 2027. The increasing need for zinc-air batteries in electronic devices, especially in hearing aids, and the global shift towards green energy sources are key factors boosting the growth of this market.
By metal, the aluminum segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Aluminum-air batteries have a high energy density, are lightweight and environmentally friendly, have good recyclability, and are low cost. Since aluminum is a lightweight metal and the cathode material, oxygen does not have to be stored in the battery. An aluminum-air battery is considerably lighter than a comparable lithium-ion battery.
