Patent licensing is a revocable agreement between a patent owner and a licensee to transfer interest in a patent to a licensee, who can benefit from and enforce the intellectual property rights. The Patent Licensing for Batteries & Materials covers battery manufacturing technology, battery material formulation, and battery material manufacturing and so on.
Patent Licensing for Batteries & Materials deals involve payment for the license. The licensor will either receive a single-time payment or as continuing payments known as royalty, depending upon what is agreed between the licensor and the licensee. And usually, license agreement comes with some terms and conditions agreed by both parties, which have a binding effect on them. The agreement consists definition of the product, mode of payment between parties, the purpose of the license, and many more.

Market Challenges
The battery technology upgrade cycle is short. With the iteration of positive and negative materials, structural innovation, and new technologies such as solid-state and semi-solid electrolytes continue to emerge. Lithium battery and battery companies are actively deploying solid-state battery technology, but the industry is still in the stage of semi-solid-state to all-solid-state development. The technical problems of all-solid-state batteries still need to be solved, and it will take a long time to truly realize industrialization and scale. In addition, due to its excellent performance and huge potential, it attracts battery players with strong strength and capital to continuously invest in research and development. The leading players have accumulated technology for more than ten years. Once a breakthrough is achieved, high technical barriers will be formed. At the same time, it will also affect the authorization and use of patents of other technical routes in the battery industry, and bring challenges to the authorization of other patents in the battery industry.

Restrictions on Licensees
Patent Licensing for Batteries & Materials technology licensing may add a layer of expense to battery products. Adding new technology is a good thing, but only if its cost is what the market can charge for it. Adding multiple technologies to products may make technology-rich battery products too expensive to market.
Battery manufacturers that rely on licensing technology may become overly dependent on technology, which ultimately becomes a barrier to the company's ability to expand in the future or to change, modify and improve its products to suit different market needs.
Therefore, for the Patent Licensing for Batteries & Materials industry, the licensee should pay attention to the investment in R&D, innovation, etc. while using the relevant patents.

Segmentation Overview:
By type, Non-Exclusive License segment accounted for the largest share of market in 2022.

Exclusive License
An Exclusive Licence means that no person or company other than the named licensee can exploit the relevant intellectual property rights. Upon grant of the exclusive license, even the licensor is also excluded from exploiting the intellectual property rights and cannot sell the goods in the territory where the licensee has acquired an exclusive license. In this type of licensing, the risk of infringement is less as it is less exploited and the licensee will have a monopoly over the market, so the cost of the product will be higher than the usual price, and the revenue will also be higher, and licensor will also receive a higher royalty payment.

Non-Exclusive License
A Non-Exclusive Licence grants to the licensee the right to use the intellectual property, but means that the licensor remains free to exploit the same intellectual property and to allow any number of other licensees to also exploit the same intellectual property.

Application Overview:
In the Patent Licensing for Batteries & Materials market, 69.74% of the total value was generated through the Batteries segment by application in 2022.

Batteries
Licensing of patents related mainly to the entire battery production. such as solid-state batteries.

Materials
Mainly refers to the patent licensing of battery materials. Such as positive and negative electrode materials.
