Global Lead Acid Market Size, Share, and Trends Analysis Report – Industry Overview and Forecast to 2032

Lead Acid Market Analysis

The IEA predicts that the electricity industry will experience the strongest increase in the renewables sector, increasing from 24 percent in 2017 to around 30 percent in 2023. Over 70% of the world's electricity is expected to be generated during this time period, according to estimates. Solar (both photovoltaics and ground mount modules) would lead this expansion, followed by wind, hydropower, and bioenergy. Thus, it is anticipated that as generation increases, lead acid battery use would likewise rise dramatically. The growth in adoption of lead acid batteries will further boost the growth rate of the lead acid market over the forecast period.

Lead Acid Market Size

Global lead acid market size was valued at USD 53.60 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 80.41 billion by 2032, with a CAGR of 5.20% during the forecast period of 2025 to 2032.

Report Scope and Market Segmentation       

Lead Acid Market Definition

Lead acid is largely used to manufacture the lead acid batteries. The negative electrode of a lead acid battery is formed of porous or spongy lead. As the lead is porous, lead can develop and dissolve more easily. Lead oxide makes up the positive electrode. A sulfuric acid and water electrolytic solution is used to submerge both electrodes.
