Global markets for thin-film batteries (TFBs) to reach nearly $647.6 million by 2018

The global market for thin-film batteries (TFBs) is growing rapidly in conjunction with the increasing demand for thin, small-footprint, and flexible devices within various industries. A greater need exists for integrating ultrathin energy supply components in products such as smart cards, RFID tags, medical devices, miniature and wireless sensors, and microelectronics. According to BCC Research, the growth of TFBs is being facilitated by the growing demand for small-footprint TFB devices with increased storage capacity and also by the adoption of mass-production thin-film fabrication methods that allow for higher throughput and lower unit prices.

BCC Research provides an in-depth study of the global market for thin-film batteries through its report, Global Markets and Technologies for Thin-Film Batteries. As per the report, the global TFB market was valued at $51.8 million in 2012 and is expected to increase to $87.3 million in 2013. BCC Research projects the market to reach $647.6 million in 2018, and register a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 49.3% for the period 2013 to 2018.
