Market demand for energy storage cells

What will China's battery energy storage system look like in 2030?

Battery energy storage systems (BESS) will have a CAGR of 30 percent, and the GWh required to power these applications in 2030 will be comparable to the GWh needed for all applications today. China could account for 45 percent of total Li-ion demand in 2025 and 40 percent in 2030—most battery-chain segments are already mature in that country.

What is the future of battery energy storage systems?

The future of battery energy storage systems is expected to be promising, with a higher inflow of investments in the coming years. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), investments in energy storage exceeded USD 20 billion in 2022.

Do battery demand forecasts underestimate the market size?

Just as analysts tend to underestimate the amount of energy generated from renewable sources, battery demand forecasts typically underestimate the market size and are regularly corrected upwards.

How much was invested in energy storage in 2022?

According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), investments in energy storage exceeded USD 20 billion in 2022. The battery energy storage systems industry has witnessed a higher inflow of investments in the last few years and is expected to continue this trend in the future.

When will a 220 MW battery energy storage system be commissioned?

The company is working on a large-scale 220 MW Battery Energy Storage System project in North Rhine-Westphalia, which is likely to be commissioned in 2024. The battery energy storage systems industry has witnessed a higher inflow of investments in the last few years and is expected to continue this trend in the future.

How can a battery industry achieve its growth and ESG targets?

Data availability and transparency are fundamental requirements to ensure that the industry achieves its growth and ESG targets. This will require harmonized, credible, and trusted data.
