Grid-scale Battery Storage Market Growth & Trends

The global grid-scale battery storage market size is expected to reach USD 15.04 billion by 2027 registering a CAGR of 24.4%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. An increase in the number of grid infrastructure, government initiatives, and investments to develop battery technologies and its storage capacity will propel the overall demand.

Increasing awareness among consumers, expanded deployment, utility sectors, technological advancements, and a push from various governments to adopt clean power energy generated by renewable sources are few factors that drive the demand for grid-scale battery storage across the globe. The market in North America accounted for around 21.09% of the global share in 2019.

Asia Pacific is anticipated to register the fastest CAGR from 2020 to 2027 owing to rapid urbanization, transmission & distribution system, increasing industrialization, and subsidies provided by the government for grid-scale battery storage capacity, mainly in the developing countries of India, China, and Singapore.

Considerable developments and investments in renewable energy projects are driving down the cost of lithium-ion batteries, thus increasing the demand for grid-scale storage batteries. The expansions in the grid-scale battery storage are being determined by upgradation of infrastructures, with favorable regulation, and improving system costs. However, exploring of new geographical markets and help in opening of the need for energy storage systems will spur the market development.
