Why do we need energy storage solutions?
As the global energy transition accelerates, the need for reliable, scalable and cost-effective energy storage solutions has never been greater.
Are batteries the future of energy storage?
The International Energy Agency (IEA) says batteries will make up 90% of the sixfold increase in global energy storage capacity through 2030, while 1,500GW is estimated to be available by the end of the decade. This growth is led by falling costs, innovations in technology, and favorable policies to mitigate the emissions of greenhouse gases.
Are battery energy storage systems essential grid infrastructure?
Battery energy storage systems (BESS), once seen as promising add-ons to renewables, are now considered essential grid infrastructure—tested during blackouts, storms, and surging demand curves. One of the clearest trends shaping this change is the prioritization of availability over capacity.
Will energy storage capacity expand by 2030?
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), to meet the increasing global energy demand, storage capacity must expand to 1,500 gigawatts (GW) by 2030. It also projects that 90% of this should come from batteries alone. However, current trends in the energy storage industry are creating a different picture.
