The pandemic is estimated to have an impact on various factors of the value chain of the lithium-ion battery anode market, which is expected to reflect during the forecast period, especially in the year 2020 to 2021. The various impact of COVID-19 are as follows:

IMPACT ON LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ANODE: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the temporary shutdown of production plants and related activities in most of the major economies across the globe. Besides, it has slow down the growth of various sectors as most of the countries worldwide have resorted to nationwide lockdown as a measure to control the spread of the virus. This has resulted in disruptions in the global supply chains and consequently affected the growth of the various industries such as automotive, marine, and energy storage attributed to the shortage of raw materials and other inputs. Likewise, limited transportation, travel restrictions, and halt of manufacturing activities have hampered the growth of the lithium-ion battery anode market, and the purchase and usage patterns have changed drastically, which has reduced the sales of various lithium-ion battery materials.

The automotive end-use segment is projected to lead the global lithium-ion battery anode market during the forecast period.

The automotive end-use industry is expected to be one of the major segments for lithium-ion battery anode market. Battery-driven vehicles such as electric vehicles, e-bikes, and automated guided vehicles, are major consumers of lithium-ion batteries. There is increasing competition between battery models installed in EVs owing to the need for operational excellence. Increasing adoption and awareness of EVs supports the growth of the lithium-ion battery market which in turn enhances the demand for lithium-ion battery anode.

Europe lithium-ion battery anode market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR

Europe is the second-largest consumer of lithium-ion battery anode and accounted for a share of 6.1% of the global market, in terms of value, in 2020. The region is home to some of the largest battery manufacturers, such as Saft (France) and FIAMM (Italy). Batteries have major applications as clean, sustainable, and compact sources of power in automotive. The region is witnessing significant growth in the demand for EVs which is largely dependent on government incentives and funds. Growth in demand for electric vehicle has increased the demand for lithium-ion battery anode which in return has fueled the demand for lithium-ion battery anode in the region.

The key players in the lithium-ion battery anode market include Showa Denko Materials (Japan), JFE Chemical Corporation (Japan), Kureha Corporation (Japan), SGL Carbon (Germany), Shanshan Technology (China), and POSCO CHEMICAL (South Korea). The lithium-ion battery anode market report analyzes the key growth strategies adopted by the leading market players between 2017 and 2021, which include expansions, investments, and mergers & acquisitions.

Insulating Glass Window Market Driver: Optimal energy-saving performance


The insulating glass window market size was USD 12.0 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 17.2 billion by 2026; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2021 to 2026. The increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings in various regions is expected to drive the growth of this market. The commercial segment accounted for the largest share of the insulating glass window market in 2020, owing to the increasing rate of commercial building construction in the countries such as the US, Germany, China, and India.

To know about the assumptions considered for the study download the pdf brochure

The high energy consumption in buildings is propelling the demand for energy-efficient building materials such as insulating glass windows. The usage of insulating glass windows can help reduce energy losses and result in lower energy consumption, which is a crucial requirement. The heat and light transferred through the glass directly impact the comfort level of the people in the room, apart from affecting the energy costs. Switching to insulating glass windows makes a huge difference in the overall energy consumption. The use of insulating glass windows in residential and commercial buildings can reduce power consumption by almost 50%, thereby proving to be an effective technology for power optimization. Also, the growing trend of rating systems in various countries, such as LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) in the US, IGBC Green Ratings in India, and others are likely to contribute to the growth of the insulating glass window market.

North America is expected to dominate the insulating glass window market from 2021 to 2026

North America is projected to be the largest regional market for insulating glass windows. The market in North America is driven by moderate growth in the construction industry. Glass insulation is considered a viable option for making buildings energy-efficient. Also, factors such as the high quality of infrastructural construction, reduced environmental impact, climatic conditions, and government regulations are fueling the growth of energy-efficient windows in North America.

The key market players include AGC Inc. (Japan), Central Glass Co., Ltd. (Japan), Compagnie de Saint-Gobain SA (France), Dymax (US), Glaston Corporation (Finland), Guardian Glass (US), H.B. Fuller Company (US), Henkel AG & Co. KGaA (Germany), Internorm (Austria), Scheuten (Netherlands), Nippon Sheet Glass Co., Ltd. (Japan), Sika AG (Switzerland), 3M (US), Viracon (US). These players have adopted product launches, acquisitions, expansions, agreements, contracts, partnerships, investments, collaborations, and divestments as their growth strategies.
