3. Marine Battery Companies - Corvus Energy (Norway) and Siemens AG (Germany) are the Key Players

A battery is a device containing one or more cells that convert chemical energy directly into electrical energy. The primary electrical system in a vessel incorporates one or more batteries. These batteries power up the electrical system and start the auxiliary power unit and/or the engines. Internal lead plates in marine batteries are thicker than those in car batteries. This enables them to discharge energy over a longer time span. The marine battery market size is projected to grow from USD 527 Million in 2022 to USD 2,056 Million by 2030, at a CAGR of 18.6 % from 2022 to 2030. The rise in global sea-borne trade and increasing number of hybrid and fully electric maritime vessels will drive the market for marine batteries.

Onboard ship batteries can perform a variety of functions. While batteries can fully power a vessel for a limited distance or duration, enhancing overall vessel performance and energy efficiency is frequently the primary goal. Distinct ships have different operational profiles, and batteries must respond to unique energy and power demands while also considering the batterys desired/expected life cycle. Marine battery manufacturers and ship operators are focusing on the development of battery management systems to include predictive failure evaluation, charging/discharging, and state-of-charge monitoring based on machine learning concepts. This is aimed at reducing the battery life cycle cost in future.
