The revenue potential of energy storage technologies is often undervalued. Investors could adjust their evaluation approach to get a true estimate.
While energy storage is already being deployed to support grids across major power markets, new McKinsey analysis suggests investors often
However, when agents are able to exert market power or exhibit risk aversion, the value of energy storage can differ between the two ownership structures. Additionally, we discuss how
This study evaluated the economic efficiency of short-term electrical energy storage technology based on the principle of high-speed
Abstract With the rapid development of wind power, the pressure on peak regulation of the power grid is increased. Electro-chemical energy storage is used on a large scale because of its high
However, when agents are able to exert market power or exhibit risk aversion, the value of energy storage can differ between the two ownership structures. Additionally, we discuss how differential pricing and market barriers influence the value of energy storage.
While energy storage is already being deployed to support grids across major power markets, new McKinsey analysis suggests investors often underestimate the value of energy storage in their business cases.
Where a profitable application of energy storage requires saving of costs or deferral of investments, direct mechanisms, such as subsidies and rebates, will be effective. For applications dependent on price arbitrage, the existence and access to variable market prices are essential.
Although academic analysis finds that business models for energy storage are largely unprofitable, annual deployment of storage capacity is globally on the rise (IEA, 2020). One reason may be generous subsidy support and non-financial drivers like a first-mover advantage (Wood Mackenzie, 2019).
Current knowledge suggests that ESS costs have recently been significantly reduced, and several economic analyses (e.g. ) have shown that these storage facilities are increasingly economically competitive with other energy sources such as fossil fuels.
Historically, companies, grid operators, independent power providers, and utilities have invested in energy-storage devices to provide a specific benefit, either for themselves or for the grid. As storage costs fall, ownership will broaden and many new business models will emerge.
