Lead Market Analysis, Segments, Growth and Value Chain 2014 - 2020
Lead is a soft and malleable metal belonging to the carbon group. It is the heaviest non-radioactive element which occurs naturally on earth in the form of four isotopes: lead-208, 207, 206, and 204. It is generally found in ores with copper, silver and zinc and is extracted together with these metals. Lead compounds exist in two main oxidation states: +4 and +2. It is widely used in construction activities, production of weights, lead-acid batteries, and as a radiation shield.

Report Description<br />
<strong>Lead</strong> is a soft <strong>and</strong> malleable metal belonging to the carbon group. It is the heaviest nonradioactive<br />
element which occurs naturally on earth in the form of four isotopes: lead-<br />
208, 207, 206, <strong>and</strong> 204. It is generally found in ores with copper, silver <strong>and</strong> zinc <strong>and</strong> is<br />
extracted together with these metals. <strong>Lead</strong> compounds exist in two main oxidation<br />
states: +4 <strong>and</strong> +2. It is widely used in construction activities, production of weights, leadacid<br />
batteries, <strong>and</strong> as a radiation shield. Conventional lead-acid batteries have a<br />
significant history in providing energy storage for a wide range of end-use applications, in<br />
mobile as well as stationary applications.<br />
The global market for lead has been witnessing noticeable growth on account of growing<br />
lead-acid battery consumption. In addition, the global dem<strong>and</strong> is estimated to be<br />
significant in the coming years as capacity expansions <strong>and</strong> new operations boost supply<br />
at a faster rate than dem<strong>and</strong>.<br />

According to government sources of various developed <strong>and</strong> developing economies, their<br />
nationwide dem<strong>and</strong> for energy is expected to be doubled within the next decade. Owing<br />
to this, various countries such as China <strong>and</strong> India have started making huge investments<br />
in smart grid technology in order to meet the huge dem<strong>and</strong> for power. Potential<br />
investments in smart grid technology has further lead to the growth of lead-acid<br />
batteries which are used in electrical vehicles (EV) which serve as one of the major<br />
component in the smart grid technology.
Report Description<br />
<strong>Lead</strong>-acid battery exports <strong>and</strong> production have strongly recovered in China after the<br />
wide-ranging environmentally motivated cutbacks in 2011. In addition, increasing<br />
adoption of advanced vehicle technologies such as stop-start & hybrid vehicles <strong>and</strong><br />
renewable energy generation is contributing towards the innovation in lead-based<br />
battery segment. <strong>Lead</strong>-acid batteries based on modern technologies have also been<br />
gaining significant importance in applications where batteries are considered extremely<br />
vital for their mechanism, as well as in new applications such as grid storage for<br />
renewable energy generation.<br />

<strong>Growth</strong> of the building construction industry is anticipated to be one of the major factors<br />
driving the dem<strong>and</strong> for lead over the next few years. <strong>Lead</strong> is widely used in the<br />
construction industry as architectural metals for roofing materials, gutters <strong>and</strong> gutter<br />
joints, <strong>and</strong> on roof parapets. Moreover, increasing dem<strong>and</strong> for lead-acid batteries for<br />
automotive application on account of rising automobile industry is expected to<br />
contribute to the growth of the market. However, growing health concerns regarding the<br />
use of lead paints is expected to slow down the growth of the market. North America was<br />
the largest consumer for lead owing to its vast construction <strong>and</strong> automobile industry. The<br />
dem<strong>and</strong> in Europe is expected to rise moderately on account of declining automobile<br />
sales. However, future market growth is expected to be from Asia Pacific on account of<br />
rising dem<strong>and</strong> for energy in smart grid technology which includes electrical vehicles<br />
operated on lead batteries. This factor is further expected to provide new opportunities<br />
for the growth of the market.

Development of absorbed glass mat (AGM) lead acid batteries on account of their<br />
favorable characteristic of being maintenance-free are also expected to provide growth<br />
opportunities for the lead market.<br />
