Energy storage systems are a critical tool in this transformation, offering a more dynamic and reliable approach to demand management.
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%.
Energy storage systems (ESS) in the U.S. was 27.57 GW in 2022 and is expected to reach 67.01 GW by 2030. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.4% over the forecast period. The size of the energy storage industry in the U.S. will be driven by rising electrical applications and the adoption of rigorous energy efficiency standards.
The majority of the growth is due to forklifts (8% CAGR). UPS and data centers show moderate growth (4% CAGR) and telecom backup battery demand shows the lowest growth level (2% CAGR) through 2030. Figure 8. Projected global industrial energy storage deployments by application
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.
In the electricity sector, governments should consider energy storage, alongside other flexibility options such as demand response, power plant retrofits, or smart grids, as part of their long-term strategic plans, aligned with wind and solar PV capacity as well as grid capacity expansion plans.
Energy storage is rapidly emerging as a vital component of the global energy landscape, driven by the increasing integration of renewable energy sources and the need for grid stability. As the world transitions towards cleaner energy systems, innovative storage solutions are gaining prominence, enabling more efficient use of renewable resources.
