Buyers should diversify suppliers and maintain buffer inventories to ensure a continuous supply. Notably, the United States is a net exporter of primary batteries and cells, which can affect European sourcing dynamics and pricing. Procurement teams can leverage US export flows to secure a reliable supply and reduce exposure to local shortages, while also monitoring international shipping trends and potential impacts of tariffs or trade policies.

Battery size has the largest impact on price, with the device's size and energy needs determining the required battery size. Larger batteries are more expensive because they use more raw materials and manufacturing inputs, which increases production costs and supplier prices.
