According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Electric Forklift Lithium Battery market size was valued at US$ 26960 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 38730 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.4% during review period.
Electric forklift lithium battery is an energy storage device used in electric forklifts. Compared with traditional lead-acid batteries, it has many significant advantages.
First, the life cycle of electric forklift lithium battery is usually more than 3000 charge and discharge cycles, far exceeding the 500 to 1000 cycle life of lead-acid batteries. Some high-quality lithium batteries, such as lithium iron phosphate batteries, can last for 5 to 10 years, greatly reducing the frequency of battery replacement and operating costs.
Second, the energy conversion efficiency of lithium batteries is as high as more than 95%, which can convert more stored energy into usable energy and reduce energy waste. In contrast, the efficiency of lead-acid batteries is about 80% to 85%.
In addition, lithium batteries support opportunity charging and can be quickly charged in a short time, such as during lunch breaks, greatly reducing downtime and improving work efficiency. Lead-acid batteries require 8 to 12 hours to charge.
Finally, lithium batteries are lighter and smaller in size, which contributes to more user-friendly and efficient equipment design. Lithium batteries are usually only 1/4 the weight of lead-acid batteries of the same capacity, and only about 1/3 the volume of lead-acid batteries.
Lithium batteries are suitable for high-intensity, multi-shift operation scenarios, such as airports, large-scale storage and logistics centers, etc. In these scenarios, the fast charging and high efficiency characteristics of lithium batteries can give full play to their advantages and keep the vehicle working at full load and uninterruptedly.
As the demand for cleaner and more sustainable operations continues to grow, the demand for electric forklifts is also increasing. Electric forklifts require reliable and efficient battery systems to power their operation, which directly promotes the application and development of lithium batteries in the field of electric forklifts.
Many countries and regions have introduced a series of environmental protection regulations and policies to restrict or prohibit the use of highly polluting batteries such as lead-acid batteries in industrial vehicles such as electric forklifts. This has prompted companies to turn to more environmentally friendly and efficient lithium batteries.
Continuous breakthroughs and innovations in lithium battery technology, such as increased energy density, faster charging speed, and enhanced safety, have made the application of lithium batteries in electric forklifts more extensive and reliable.
Although the initial investment cost of lithium batteries is high, their long life, low maintenance cost and high efficiency make them more cost-effective in long-term use. As the scale of lithium battery production expands and the technology matures, its cost is gradually decreasing.
Electric forklifts are increasingly widely used in different industries and fields, such as warehousing and logistics, manufacturing, etc. These industries have different performance requirements for electric forklifts, which has promoted the continuous innovation and diversified development of lithium battery technology.
Although lithium battery technology has made significant progress, it still needs to be further improved in some aspects. For example, there is still room for improvement in battery cycle life, safety, charging efficiency, etc.
Although lithium batteries have many advantages in the field of electric forklifts, some users still have a wait-and-see attitude towards the performance and safety of lithium batteries. This affects the promotion and application of lithium batteries in the electric forklift market.
