Grid-scale storage allows utilities and industrial customers to store energy when there is a surplus and use it when energy is relatively more expensive or supply is unavailable.
First, our results suggest to industry and grid planners that the cost-effective duration for storage is closely tied to the grid’s generation mix. Solar-dominant grids tend to need 6-to-8-h storage while wind-dominant grids have a greater need for 10-to-20-h storage.
By the reckoning of the International Energy Agency (iea), a forecaster, grid-scale storage is now the fastest-growing of all the energy technologies. In 2025, some 80 gigawatts (gw) of new grid-scale energy storage will be added globally, an eight-fold increase from 2021. Grid-scale energy storage is on the rise thanks to four potent forces.
Grid-scale battery storage is a mature and fast-growing industry with demand reaching 123 gigawatt-hours last year. There are a total of 5,000 installations across the world. In the first quarter of 2024, more than 200 grid-scale projects entered operation, according to Rho Motion, with the largest a 1.3GWh project in Saudi Arabia.
China is likely to be the main winner from the increased use of grid-scale battery energy storage. Chinese battery companies BYD, CATL and EVE Energy are the three largest producers of energy storage batteries, especially the cheaper LFP batteries.
