According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery Market is accounted for $ 617.42 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $ 799.43 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period. A nickel metal hydride battery is a type of rechargeable battery. The capacity of a nickel metal hydride battery can be two to three times more than that of a NiCd battery of an identical size, and its energy density can be similar to that of a lithium-ion battery. Additionally, the positive electrode’s chemical reaction is comparable to that of the nickel-cadmium cell (NiCd), employing nickel oxide hydroxide in both cases (NiOOH). In place of cadmium, a hydrogen-absorbing alloy is used for the negative electrodes. These batteries are created using the reaction of cadmium and nickel to create standardised cylindrical forms that are compatible with nickel-cadmium batteries.

According to the Battelle Geneva Research Centre the key motivations for the Ni-MH studies were the environmental advantages associated with higher energy, lower pressure, and cost of Ni-MH compared to Ni-Cd. The development work was sponsored over nearly 2 decades by Daimler-Benz Comp. /Stuttgart and by Volkswagen AG within the framework of Deutsche Automobilgesellschaft. The batteries showed high energy and power densities up to 50 Wh/kg, 1000 W/kg and reasonable cycle life of 500 cycles.

Key players in the market

Some of the key players profiled in the Nickel-Metal Hydride Battery Market include ARTS Energy, Corun USA, Duracell Inc., Energizer Holdings, Inc., FDK Corporation, GP Batteries International Limited, GS Yuasa International Ltd., Panasonic Corporation, Primearth EV Energy Co., Ltd., VARTA Microbattery GmbH, Saft, Honda, Great Power Energy, Spectrum Brands (Rayovac)

Key Developments:

In April 2020, Honda Motor Europe expanding its partnership with SNAM (Société Nouvelle d’Affinage des Métaux) to recycle end-of-life batteries from hybrids and electric vehicles in Europe. SNAM will collect lithium-ion and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries for recycling and processing them accordingly.

In March 2020, Saft unveiled Intelli-Connect, a powerful digital monitoring tool that allows battery fleet operators to monitor the condition of number of nickel technology batteries remotely.

In January 2020, German battery manufacturer, VARTA AG acquired the US based Energizer Holdings, Inc.’s subsidiary, VARTA Consumer Batteries for $401 million. The acquisition will likely strengthen VARTA AG’s battery business and expand its product portfolio. VARTA Consumer Batteries manufactures and markets dry and primary batteries globally. The company was founded in 2002 and is headquartered in Ellwangen, Germany.
