Abstract The U.S. residential energy storage market grew rapidly during 2017–20, driven by homeowners seeking to increase resiliency, changes in net metering programs, and the
We created three global demand scenarios for batteries: fading momentum, continuation of the current trajectory (base case), and further acceleration. The main demand differentiators included variations in EV production volume and uptake of energy storage systems.
Stationary storage will also increase battery demand, accounting for about 400 GWh in STEPS and 500 GWh in APS in 2030, which is about 12% of EV battery demand in the same year in both the STEPS and the APS. Battery production has been ramping up quickly in the past few years to keep pace with increasing demand.
Although battery supply may exceed demand at the global level, the picture is more nuanced and varied by region. Some countries have excess capacity—meaning more than enough to satisfy local demand—while others rely on imports to alleviate local shortages. This regional view could become critical if more countries try to localize production.
In the electricity sector, battery energy storage systems emerge as one of the key solutions to provide flexibility to a power system that sees sharply rising flexibility needs, driven by the fast-rising share of variable renewables in the electricity mix.
Batteries account for 90% of the increase in storage in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, rising 14-fold to 1 200 GW by 2030. This includes both utility-scale and behind-the-meter battery storage. Other storage technologies include pumped hydro, compressed air, flywheels and thermal storage.
At the end of the year 2022, total global installed stationary battery storage capacity stood at more than 27 GW ( , p. 311). The speed of the increase has been substantial: just 10 years ago, the global installed battery energy storage was less than 1 GW in total.
