The global absorbent glass mat battery market size was estimated at USD 12.20 billion in 2024 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.49% from 2025 to 2030. This growth is driven by the increasing demand for energy-efficient and maintenance-free batteries across diverse applications such as automotive, uninterruptible power supply (UPS), industrial equipment, and renewable energy storage.
AGM batteries' unique properties, including high durability, spill-proof design, and superior performance under deep cycling, make them highly preferred in industries emphasizing reliability and sustainability.
The automotive sector remains a key contributor to market growth, fueled by the rising adoption of start-stop systems and hybrid electric vehicles that rely on AGM batteries for improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. Additionally, the integration of renewable energy systems, which require efficient energy storage solutions, is further propelling the demand for AGM batteries. Industries such as telecommunications and data centers are also adopting AGM batteries for UPS systems due to their reliability and ability to perform in demanding environments.
However, challenges such as the high cost of AGM batteries compared to conventional alternatives and the availability of advanced lithium-ion technologies could restrain market growth. Despite these hurdles, ongoing innovations and increasing investments in sustainable energy solutions are expected to bolster the AGM battery market, positioning it as a critical component in the global energy storage and automotive landscapes.
