Increasing Adoption of Mobile Phones and Increasing Sales of PCs to Augment Growth of Portable Battery Pack (Power Banks) Market
Power
banks are an extremely popular product and many people have one in their
possession today. It is a great thing to have and can be used for many
different things from charging up your cell phone or laptop, to charging all of
your power needs at home or work. These batteries are very popular as they can
be bought for a fairly cheap price and last a very long time with proper care.
In addition to this, the cost of these batteries when you go to dispose of them
is very low, so it is definitely a good investment to make.
Market Dynamics
Increasing
adoption of mobile phones is expected to propel growth of the portable battery
pack (power banks) market. For instance, according to Pew Research Center’s
February 2019 report, over 5 billion people have mobile devices and over 50% of
these connections are smartphones. Moreover, growing e-commerce sector is also
expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, according to India Brand
Equity Foundation, the e-commerce sector in India is expected to reach US$ 200
billion by 2026 from US$ 38.5 billion as of 2017.
