Energy storage installed capacity is expected to explode

From just under 0.5 terawatts (TW) in 2024, total capacity is expected to rise ninefold to over 4 TW by 2040, driven by battery energy storage systems (BESS). Last year saw a record-breaking 200 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of new BESS projects coming online, a growth rate of 80%.

6 FAQs about [Energy storage installed capacity is expected to explode]

Will 9% of energy storage capacity be added by 2030?

We added 9% of energy storage capacity (in GW terms) by 2030 globally as a buffer. The buffer addresses uncertainties, such as markets where we lack visibility and where more ambitious policies may develop that we haven’t predicted. We revised our buffer calculation methodology in this market outlook.

What is the future of energy storage?

Global installed energy storage is on a steep upward trajectory. From just under 0.5 terawatts (TW) in 2024, total capacity is expected to rise ninefold to over 4 TW by 2040, driven by battery energy storage systems (BESS). Last year saw a record-breaking 200 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of new BESS projects coming online, a growth rate of 80%.

Should energy storage be developed?

Developing energy storage has become a global consensus. It was announced at COP29 in late 2024 that global storage capacity will increase to 1,500 GW by 2030, more than six times the 2022 level. As a result, InfoLink maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook for the medium- to long-term development of energy storage systems.

How has cost decline impacted energy storage?

This trend may highlight that the cost decline over the past few years has driven energy storage into an era of accelerated diversification in the global market. The European energy storage market added 19.1 GWh of installed capacity in 2024, up 12.4% YoY, with drastic changes in the ESS landscape throughout the year.

How will energy storage affect global electricity production?

Global electricity output is set to grow by 50 percent by mid-century, relative to 2022 levels. With renewable sources expected to account for the largest share of electricity generation worldwide in the coming decades, energy storage will play a significant role in maintaining the balance between supply and demand.

How big will energy storage be in 2023?

EnergyTrend is forecasting that large-scale energy storage installations in the US could reach 11.6GW/38.2GWh in 2023. Finally, the research firm said it expected the growth rate of European energy storage deployment in 2024 to be slower than during this year, but did not put figures on that expectation in analysis seen by Energy-Storage.news.
