Strategic Partnerships with OEMs to Revitalize Primary Lithium Battery Market.Business Editors PALO ALTO Palo Alto, city, California Palo Alto (păl`ō ăl`tō), city (1990 pop. 55,900), Santa Clara co., W Calif.; inc. 1894. Although primarily residential, Palo Alto has aerospace, electronics, and advanced research industries. , Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 13, 2004 Competition between the three most common primary lithium battery Lithium batteries are primary batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. Depending on the design and chemical compounds used lithium cells can produce voltages from 1.5V to about 3V, twice the voltage of an ordinary zinc-carbon battery or alkaline cell. chemistries (lithium/sulfur dioxide, lithium/thionyl chloride, lithium/manganese dioxide) in various applications stymies growth in the market. Vendors need to focus on the specific requirements of the original equipment manufacturers (OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and ) and specialize in the chemistry best suited for each application in order to sustain market share. New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (www.batteries.frost.com), World Primary Lithium Battery Market, reveals that revenue in this market totaled $820.6 million in 2003 and is projected to reach $1,355.3 million in 2010. "Battery vendors' opinions on the features of their battery chemistries and products can differ, thus influencing OEM's preference for a specific chemistry over another in a particular application," notes Frost & Sullivan Industry Manager Sara Bradford. Primary lithium batteries are preferred in a variety of applications ranging from the medical to military. However, the 'high-manufacturing-cost-low-price' factor and intense competition is affecting profit margins. "The impact of increased competition and decreased profit is influencing the market," notes Bradford. "This ultimately discourages new entrants into an increasingly mature market, therefore limiting innovation." Vendors need to build and skillfully maintain strategic partnerships with OEMs in order to position themselves at an advantage over the competition. These partnerships allow for customizing batteries and products, ensuring an end product that incorporates the merits of both the power source and the product application. While a thriving demand for batteries in the various sectors drives market growth, vendors also need to be equipped to handle the new regulations specified under the international transportation of dangerous goods
A dangerous good (DG). They need to identify facilities equipped to handle the eight specified tests and deal with the backlog created due to scarcity of such testing centers. The World Primary Lithium Battery Market, a part of the Batteries Subscription, evaluates the market by battery chemistry segments. It determines the market size, estimates revenue forecasts, and identifies new opportunities. The key drivers and restraints are analyzed by various application sectors such as automotive, consumer and commercial products, industrial electronics/instrumentation, IT, medical, and defense applications. The research service also dwells on challenges faced by vendors and strategies to overcome them. Executive summaries and interviews are available to the press.
