Strong growth in demand for new energy storage

How has the energy storage industry changed in 2023?

In 2023, the energy storage industry shifted gears from prosperity to intense competition, giving rise to several focal points. Examining the global energy storage market, the installation base remained relatively low from 2021 to 2023. Consequently, as market demand soared, the global installed capacity experienced double growth.

Will energy storage demand surge in 2024?

According to TrendForce's estimates, the surge in demand for large-scale commercial and industrial energy storage in 2024 is set to fuel substantial growth in the global energy storage sector. In terms of installation increments, both domestic and international markets are poised to experience a surge in demand.

How big is the demand for large-scale energy storage?

TrendForce predicts that new installations of large-scale energy storage in the United States could reach 11.6GW/38.2GWh. The primary driving force behind the demand for large-scale energy storage is the weak grid integration and a higher proportion of solar and wind power.

Why is the energy storage industry booming?

The quoted price of Energy Storage Systems (ESS) has significantly dropped, contributing to the improved economics of energy storage and fostering increased demand for installations. The combination of favorable policies and cost reductions is expected to propel the energy storage industry into a substantial growth period.

What is the future of energy storage?

In terms of installation increments, both domestic and international markets are poised to experience a surge in demand. It is anticipated that the installation of large-scale energy storage could reach 53GW/128.6GWh, outpacing the installed capacity of household, commercial, and industrial energy storage.

Is the energy storage industry poised for positive development?

Benefiting from favorable policies and reduced costs, the energy storage industry is poised for positive development. Globally, the installed demand for energy storage is expected to remain high in 2023, with TrendForce projecting a new installed capacity of 52 GW/117 GWh.
