The Africa Battery Market is expected to reach USD 4.66 billion in 2024 and grow at a CAGR of 6.55% to reach USD 6.41 billion by 2029. Duracell Inc, Panasonic Corporation, Toshiba Corporation, Exide Industries ltd and Murata manufacturing Co ltd are the major companies operating in this market.
There is also little to no battery manufacturing, except battery assembly in South Africa. Nevertheless, the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) places the lithium-ion battery value chain as a priority. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Zambia recently signed a memorandum of understanding to develop this value chain.
In 2022, the country spent around USD 700 million on importing lithium-ion cells and batteries. Hence, owing to the above points, South Africa is expected to see significant growth in the African battery market during the forecast period.
The African battery market is moderately fragmented. Some of the key players in this market (not in particular order) include Toshiba Corp., Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd, Exide Industries Ltd, Panasonic Corporation, and Duracell Inc. *Disclaimer: Major Players sorted in no particular order Need More Details on Market Players and Competitors?
Despite Africa’s riches in terms of CRMs, currently the battery minerals by and large leave the continent raw and unprocessed, with refining, and manufacturing, mostly taking place elsewhere, especially in China. Some notable exceptions include South Africa’s existing aluminium and manganese refining, and more recent nickel refining.
A battery pack made in North America and Europe currently costs 24% and 33% more respectively than in China. This may suggest potential interest in Africa, not just as a supplier of CRMs, but also as a producer of cheaper batteries.
