On the global stage, products and equipment using rechargeable batteries continue to proliferate exponentially, expecting to reach a staggering $170B market size by 2030. Unchecked, this presents countless at-scale problems with safety and sustainability. Low quality counterfeit batteries can be vulnerable to catching on fire, posing a safety risk of burns to users. Beyond safety, this risks degradation of brand reputation and device performance. EU regulations are phasing in to address some of these issues, which presents tremendous opportunity for ADI in globally interconnected markets. Our solutions include a full suite of charging, monitoring, and security functions to help customers comply with the regulations. Our security solutions include provenance, authenticity, and life cycle tracking features for batteries, while monitoring and charging functions optimize the health and life of batteries throughout their lifetime.
This session will give an overview of the underlying issues, regulations, and how to position the ADI portfolio to address them.
